Weston, Staffordshire
Project: Tee Construction, Ditch Shaping and Sand Slitting
Client: Ingestre Park Golf Club
Design By: White Horse Contractors Limited

White Horse Contractors have a long association with Ingestre Park Golf Club, a total of 5 Tees have been reconstructed for the club, ditches reshaped and sand slits installed.

Works for Tee reshaping include the removal of topsoil from the existing tee and surrounds, levelling and extending the existing area; installing land drains at appropriate spacings and finally laying turf over the new construction.

Sand slits were installed to run the length of the fairway to key into the existing drains. The slits were 250mm deep by 60mm wide, filled with gravel to within 100mm of the surface and topped with an approved sand. The installation of sand slits allows for the rapid removal of surface water into the drain system.

Brian Robson, The Club's Greens Chairman commented that:

" The men working in the relevant teams have worked well with our Head Greenkeeper and his staff, ensuring that the work when completed was to the highest standards. The quality of the finish to the 5 new Tees is superb and has led to many favourable comments from both our members and the many visitors who come to play at Ingestre Park.

White Horse have proved to be a company that it is a pleasure to do business with, from the Senior Management down and we have no hesitation in recommending them to other Golf Courses. "

Further improvements are planned, and White Horse Contractors will continue to provide the Club with the first class service, which it has come to expect.
