item 1 golf Mitcham common golf coarse wed 22nd
plus bonus for players

Golf has been played on the Common since the Conservators first granted a concession to the Princes Golf Club Ltd in 1891. Over the years that followed the Club became popular and a clubhouse was erected on railway-owned land close to Mitcham Junction station.

I lived and worked in Mitcham for over a decade. Never knew it had a golf course :man_shrugging:

Just to cheer everyone up - I have just read this while searching for places to go::

The father of all four-way interchanges, cloverleaf junctions started appearing in Germany and the USA during the 1920s, connecting the world’s earliest motorways. They’re widespread across the world - but in the UK, there are only two of them.

Happy flying! :slight_smile:
