Peterhead Golf Club
Peterhead Golf Club, in Peterhead, Aberdeenshire, Scotland, was founded in 1841, making it, by its own claim, the 18th-oldest golf club in the world. Located on the River Ugie near its mouth with the North Sea, it began in its current Craigewan Links home, which is just over a mile northwest of Peterhead town centre, as a nine-hole course in 1892, designed by dual winner of The Open Championship Willie Park, Jr. Known colloquially as the "Old Course", it was extended to eighteen holes in 1908. A second eighteen-hole course was established in 1923; however, due to the intervention of World War II, it became neglected about twenty years later and today exists as the nine-hole "New Course".

Today's 18-hole course is par 70 and 6,147 yards. Members and guests who arrive at the club by car park their vehicles on the southern side of the River Ugie on Golf Road, itself off Riverside Drive, Blackhouse Terrace or Ugie Road, depending on the direction of approach. A pedestrian bridge, around in length, takes them to the dunes on the course side of the river. From there it is about a walk due north to the club house.
