Faringdon Golf Course closed in the Autumn of 2015 with the promise of re-opening for Summer 16. The fantastic course never reopened and a recent planning application for a holiday park with log cabins has been submitted by the owners.
These photos were captured by my son over two separate visits during the late Summer of 2016.
It amazes me how quickly an established golf course of 20 years which has been enjoyed by golfers of all abilities can deteriorate to nothing more than wasteland in such a short period of time. The postions of the greens, tees and bunkers are practically unrecognizable. The club house and shop is empty and the machinery (whats left) has been left to rot.
