1905 | | Another view of Chiflik in 1905 published by the same printer as the picture above. This was A H Homewood of Burgess Hill. The postmark on this card is June 1905 indicating that the photo could have been taken earlier. |
1905 | | Titled "Golf Links, South View, Crowborough" It is difficult to work out where this photograph was taken and what it is showing. Photograph by A Salkeld |
1906 | | View from the Clubhouse by A R Quinton, a celebrated watercolour artist known for his paintings of British landscapes. In this view of the first he has featured the yellow gorse from which the name Crowborough is believed to be derived - " Crohbergh" in Old English translates to saffron hill. |
1907 | | Printer: A H Homewood of Burgess Hill. |
1908 | | Although dated to 1908, this is a hand-coloured version of the 1905 photograph. |
1908 | | Titled as "Bridge and Waterfall, Golf Links, Crowborough". Is this the fifth where there is still evidence of a stone built bridge? Later postcards leave out the "Golf Links" part of the title. |
1908? | | The new Clubhouse from the North |
1910 | | The new Clubhouse from the North taken on a different day. Note the cowl on the Chimney that appears in most other photographs but not the one above. |
1910 | | Magnificent view of the east side of the new Clubhouse looking down the first. |
1910 | | This is probably the first green when it was on the south side of Sheep Plain. The track behind is that which runs across today's second and fifth holes. Photographer: J Booker |
1912 | | The new Clubhouse from the South. Printer: A H Homewood |
1913 | | Two picture postcards of Ladies playing at Crowborough. They are playing from the original 18th tee on the south side of Sheep Plain in the area of the current second tees. The cut surface middle right is the site of the current first green which was the 17th at the time of this match. |
1913 | | Obviously the same match as above in 1913. The photographer has moved round slightly for the second Lady's shot from the 18th tee. This postcard though has a postmark dated 1922. |
1913 | | Photographed and printed as part of the same series as the Ladies match seen in the previous two postcards. It is likely that the people on what was the 18th green includes the two Ladies concluding their match. |
1913 | | Postcard of the The A26 taken around the junction with Sheep Plain. The new Clubhouse is clearly visible. Original postcard has a 1915 postmark. |
1915 | | Titled "Golf Links" this is almost certainly a view of the first. Similar tracks are visible in the 1910 photo above showing the east side of the Clubhouse and the first teeing area. Postcard by Webb & Longstaff |
1915 | | A view of the recently completed new Clubhouse between 1910 and 1915 showing the large house in the background, possibly the same one as seen in the early pictures of Chiflik. |
1916 | | Further up the A26. Note the lady able to push a pram along the road without fear of injury. Probably taken at the same time as the photograph above. |
1916 | | New Clubhouse probably before the existing Professional's "Showroom" and Caddy Room were built. The postmark on this card is 1916 but the photograph was taken a year or two earlier. |
1916 | | The roof of the new Professional's Showroom can be seen clearly over the hedge. |
1916 | | The new buildings at the side of the 18th are revealed in this postcard. The Professional's Showroom was nearest the Clubhouse with a door in the north wall. The Caddies room had doors opening onto both the road and the course. Postcard by Webb & Longstaff. |
1920 | | View from the current General Manager's Office looking eastwards down South View Road. |
1920 | | Titled "South Downs from the Golf Links, Crowborough". This is probably taken from what is now the wooded area on the right of the 16th looking at the house called The Ghyll. To the right can be seen the fifth teeing area and running directly behind the house, the fourth fairway. |
1927 | | Photograph of the Carry at the First was taken by A H Stickells and appeared in the Booklet "Southern Highlands" in 1927. |
1925? | | The second hole looking toward the quarry beyond the fourth tee. Date unknown but the Quarries were a feature in MacKenzie's plans in the mid 1920's |
1934 | | A view across the second and to the fourth in the distance. Postcard has a 1934 postmark although the picture is possibly much earlier. |
1970/80s | | Undated postcard of the modern era. Photograph taken before 1987 storm |
1970/80s | | Undated postcard of the modern era showing the 16th from the teeing area. |
