This print showcases the magnificent Art Deco clubhouse of Childwall Golf Club, located in Naylors Road, Liverpool. The image captures the clubhouse from a south-west perspective, with a skilled golfer practicing on the foreground's lush green practice area. Childwall Golf Club has been an integral part of Liverpool's sporting heritage since its establishment in 1912. In 1938, the club relocated to its current location on Naylors Road and commissioned renowned architect Alfred Shennan to design their iconic clubhouse. The course itself was expertly crafted by James Braid. The photograph beautifully encapsulates the charm and elegance of mid-20th century golfing culture. The art deco architecture of the clubhouse exudes sophistication and timeless style against a backdrop of rolling greens and picturesque landscapes. Published in Ray Physick's book "Played in Liverpool" this image serves as a testament to both the historical significance and enduring allure of Childwall Golf Club. It symbolizes not only a place for sports enthusiasts but also an embodiment of camaraderie, competition, and leisurely pursuits. As we gaze upon this remarkable scene captured by Simon Inglis, it is impossible not to be transported back in time – imagining golfers honing their skills on these hallowed grounds while relishing moments shared within this storied club house.
