Formed in 1931 as a Municipal course under hospices of Bingley Urban Council developed from a nine hole layout, to today's 18 hole championship test, ranking amongst the best in Yorkshire. Dr Alister Mackenzie and his brother were amongst those involved in the early layout.
The club was privatised in 1990, agreeing a long-term lease with Bradford Metropolitan Council. Since then a new Clubhouse has been built and improvements made to the majority of holes by new tees, bunkers etc and conservation work undertaken to preserve heather and flora species. Mark James, Ryder Cup Captain opened the clubhouse in 1994.
New Clubhouse, tastefully furnished, snooker room, cafeteria serving quality food in beautiful setting.
