Origins

The course was developed on a 210-acre site between Comberton and Toft, west of Cambridge. Peter Alliss and Clive Clark, both former Ryder Cup players, were commissioned to design the layout, which opened in 1994. Its relationship with the Greenwich Meridian supplied the club with both its name and its most distinctive geographical identity.

Did You Know?
The club says golfers cross the Greenwich Meridian seven times during a round and that Cambridge Meridian is one of only ten courses worldwide straddling the line.

Design Philosophy

Alliss and Clark created an inland layout of more than 6,700 yards from the traditional back markers. Broad playing corridors are combined with water, bunkering and large greens.

Today

Cambridge Meridian remains an 18-hole, par-73 visitor-accessible course. The club continues to use the Meridian Line prominently in its identity and provides professional-shop, practice, tuition and clubhouse facilities.
