Littlestone Golf Club
St Andrew's Road

The Club was established in 1888 on land bought by the entrepreneurs Henry T. Tubbs and J. Lewis. The original Links was laid out by the first captain, Laidlaw Purves, and since has been improved and altered.

Littlestone has hosted many major golfing events, including the qualifying rounds when the Open Championship has been played at Sandwich. Among the celebrities who have played here are Noel Coward, the journalist William Deedes and politicians such as A.J. Balfour, H.H. Asquith and Kenneth Clark.

The course is a Site of Special Scientific Interest, with a great variety of flora and fauna to be seen.
