This clock sits on the roof of the 1974-built clubhouse and boasts a fine golf themed weather vane. The Golf Club has a history dating back to 1884 when a group of local business men suggested to the Freeholders of Newbiggin Moor that some of the land should be used for the playing of golf. The freeholders own around 185 acres of the town’s links, common, moorland, foreshore and beach, and each Freeholder receives an annual dividend of around £75 from land leased to the Golf Club and Caravan Park.
