Formed in 1903, Hendon Golf Club initially operated a course laid out by J.H. Taylor, with Harry Vardon contributing. Additional land became available in the mid-1920s, allowing John Morrison to design a revised layout, with Franks & Harrison and William Press constructing thirteen new holes and remodelling the other five holes.

A serious Harry Colt revival going on here.
Since joining Hendon Golf Club in 2020 I have seen huge improvements to the conditioning and maintenance of the playing areas which would see this course rated 4 stars.
When I moved to North London during COVID, I visited many of the surrounding golf courses in the area before deciding on Hendon. The mix of holes, quality of the greens and variety of shots required makes for a spectacular round of golf. Half a dozen seriously strong, two full shot par 4s. To top it off, the clubhouse looks out onto: 1st tee, 18th green and the entire 9th hole - short Par 3 - making for a spectators golf club.
Notable improvements have been made to the greens in the past 5 years. Whilst the surfaces have always run fast and true, the surrounds have been restored to true Colt standards and we've seen a wide variety of playing areas revived when missing Hendons relatively small parkland greens.
