The name
Glencorse Green probably takes its name from Glencorse Golf Club. A 16 arch railway viaduct crossed the course until the members voted to blow it up in 1987.
Where the club's facts come from: Railway - Glencorse Golf Club, the club's own history.
How sure we are of the match: Likely
The estate's streets were named after golf courses. The streets page explains how each match was made.
We have not yet found anything written about this street itself. If you know when it was built or who first lived there, that would help.
