Layout
Orton
Meadows Golf Course was opened initially as a 12 hole course
laid out on land available within Ferry Meadows Country Park.
The course
was subsequently extended to a full 18 holes with the additional
holes being built on land reclaimed during gravel extraction.
The course
- a par 67 of 5613 yards designed by Dennis and Roger Fitton
- is extremely picturesque, surrounded by trees and having
much wildlife including many varieties of birds and waterfowl.
As well
as interesting scenery Orton Meadows provides its own challenges
and rewards with water featuring on no less than 10 holes.
The third is a long - some say very long - par 5.
The second
and fifteenth compete to be the shortest with the 15th just
winning!
