Allerton golf course has an 18 hole 5,500 yard par 67 and a 9 hole 1,841 yard par 34. This municipal course was constructed in the leafy suburbs of Liverpool and the club house is in the stable block of a large manor which was known as "Allerton" (proper name Obelisk House) a grand house which was twice destroyed by fire, in the early 1800's and in 1944. The shell stands forlornly near to the sandstone obelisk from which it took its name.There are other listed buildings in the grounds and it is a very pleasant environment to play, with many mature trees it is also a challenge!
