The 17th in 1920
Played due east across the middle of the course, with a mound in front of the tee and bunkers halfway. It was one of the four waterlogged holes the club named in 1919. Darwin, who knew it as the 11th, says it ran down a slope to a green in a dip, with bunkers around it.1,5,6,11,13

There today
The hole ran due east across the middle of today's fields, south of the Ox Pasture Spring tree strip, to a green about 120 metres south of the Hillcroft Crescent houses.
Look for
Ox Pasture Spring, the tree strip to the north, has an old wood bank topped with old hornbeam along the edge that faces this hole.
