Looking back from the 1st green to the clubhouse with Appletreeleaves house to the right. When the course was a municipal layout run by the then local town council, the greenkeeper lived in this house, but nowadays it is a private house. To the left of the clubhouse, hidden by some trees, are the late 16th century remains of Appletreeleaves Tower. Update on Galashiels Golf Course:- As from Sunday 2nd March 2008, the course ceased to be an 18 hole layout and has been reduced to 9 holes. As a result this hole will no longer be an official part of the course and will likely be used as practice facilities. For a full explanation of the move to 9 holes, see Image
