A second Truro Golf Club established in 1937 in 1937, having John Morrison designing the layout and John Stutt's construction firm in charge of the construction work and a group of locals.

In the current era the course is 537 yards, which is a mere 5,372 yards over an area of rolling around 95 acres. There's just one par five at the 7th hole, which is 486 yards long. located in the northernmost region of the course, and out of bounds extending along to the left side of fairway, as the hole is redirected to the green.

Other holes that are worth a look include back-to-back par threes on the 5th and 4th holes, and the doglegging left 6th that is rated stroke index 1. In the back nine, fourteenth, a par 3, hole is one of the tougher holes and the par four 18th gives the chance to finish by making birdie, and bending slightly to the left towards the green at home.
