Description
Long Ashton Golf Club - The club was founded in 1893 in the village of Long Ashton three
miles south of Bristol. The attractive silver award example (21.5mm) is marked Birmingham
1903 (V&S). Slightly convex, the obverse has the full Club title around the edge and the
central reserve showing a dimpled ground and bearing a fine depiction of an ash tree in full
leaf. Crossed clubs placed over the trunk of the tree complete this pleasing picture.
Information is from an article in
"The British Golf Collectors Society" written by Dixon Pickup.
