Charterhouse Golf Club

The golf course now known as The Halford Hewitt was established on a 30-acre plot initially designated for housing development before being acquired by teachers for the School. A track and a sewer that were installed on this land can still be evidenced, with a remnant of the sewer pipe visible adjacent to the 2nd fairway.

In the 1920s, the area served as a School farm and source of Bargate Sandstone, used in constructing the Memorial Chapel, notably impacting the landscape with a depression on the 4th hole. The designer of the course is Donald Steele; it opened on July 2nd, 1988, with Denis Thatcher MBE, TD inaugurating play accompanied by celebrities.

The Halford Hewitt Golf Course is recognized for hosting one of Britain's most competitive tournaments among teams of former school pupils. Originating in 1923 with organizational meetings and the first tournament including teams from ten schools, the competition format was established as foursomes to accommodate players' schedules.

With Halford Hewitt's inadvertent agreement to provide a trophy, the tournament was officially founded in 1924 and has since become known for its large participation of 640 competitors from former English and Scottish public school students. The tournament's scale and competitive nature are unique, attracting both amateur and internationally renowned golfers.
