North Berwick Links
Even in the glittering array of Scotland's seaside golf courses, North Berwick's West Links stands out as a rare gem. It has taken a long time to evolve to its present state of excellence, but it has been time well spent.
Rudimentary golf (often discouraged by the authorities) had been played on North Berwick links land, as in other parts of the country, since the early years of the seventeenth century, and possibly earlier than that. But it was the formation in 1832 of North Berwick Golf Club that marked the beginning of organised golf over terrain which in time would be expanded to become the West Links which we know today.
