The history of Kent, the oldest county in the British Isles, is fascinating and there for all to see and wonder at. It is bound up with the history of a great Golf Club, scene of the Open Championship only 50 years after the first ever; patronised and regularly played by royalty; trodden by the greats - Vardon, Taylor, Ray and Braid before the first war; Duncan, Mitchell and Hagen between the wars; and by Locke, Nicklaus and Garcia in more recent times.
