Jack Gittings - There was a golf course up near The Fairy Glen behind Hill Farm on Eastnor Estate I know that Stan Brookes and Jack Oakes were members, can't remember any of the others, but I was only about 10 at the time. Jack.

Raymond Edge - Cheers Jack always wondered why they called it the links. Was he called Yorkie and his two dogs lived up here. Always in the White Hart!! Roger help us out again. Keep those pictures coming please.

Pauline Preedy - Yes you're right Ray, it was Yorkie xx
