Hillside Golf Club sits right next door to Royal Birkdale and is ranked 32nd in Golf Monthly’s magazine’s Top 100. Hillside was founded in 1911 and took its name from a nearby farm where the links were located, and in 1923 new land was acquired from the Weld Blundell estate.

In 1956 Fred Hawtree was commissioned to redesign the course, and in 1967 the new layout came into play. Although not on the Open Championship rota, it has held several major tournaments including the 1973 Benson & Hedges Match Play Championship and the 1982 PGA Championship won by Tony Jacklin.
