12th Hole

The 12th is a long par 3 that must be carried across a wide expanse of lily pond against the prevailing wind. From the medal tee, most players will choose to hit a 5-wood to this green.

A memorable feature of the hole is the walk back across the stone bridge into the open. The original designer of the demesne knew his job well.

The green is sloped, downhill from back to front, with a large undulation running across the front third.

Many a player has considered himself lucky to walk off this green having only three-putted.
