Lahinch Golf Club: Its Origins.

The origins of Lahinch Golf Club go back to the closing decade of the nineteenth century. In 1892 officers of the famous Black Watch Regiment stationed in Limerick came upon a vast wilderness of duneland two miles from the spectacular Cliffs of Moher. Being good Scotsmen, they knew at once that they had found the perfect terrain for a golf links. When this came to the attention of Alexander W. Shaw and Richard J. Plummer, prominent officials of the Limerick Golf Club, they at once went out and made enquiries. The result was a second journey on April 9th when an eighteen-hole course was marked out. They were helped in the laying out of the course by officers of the Black Watch Regiment. Lahinch Golf Club was duly founded on Good Friday, 15th April 1892, and the first game of golf played there.
