Description
Shooters Hill Golf Club - KENT-049 - The club was founded in 1903 at Lowood, Eaglesfield Road,
Shooters Hill, London SE18 3DA. This large silver award button of 24mm has stylised
lettering and a rather pleasing variance in the bottom angle of three balls within laurel
sprays, all upon a dimpled ground and within a raised and milled rim. It is backmarked
Birmingham 1907 V & S. I have to thank Sharon Deadman, Secretary of the Club for her
confirmation and kind information. The design except for a change to EST 1903 in the
lower angle is still in use on the Club’s notepaper.
