A golf course which has suffered from vandalism since being closed down due to council cuts could be reopened.
Brackenwood Golf Course, in Bebington, Wirral, was shut down on April 1, along with Hoylake Municipal, after Wirral Council withdrew its funding for the two courses. The authority estimates the move will save £328,000 towards the £20m it needs to save to address a major gap in its budget.
But golfers were furious with the move. Speaking to the ECHO in March, Jackie Watts, secretary of the ladies section at the club, said: “The course means a heck of a lot, we’ve been here since 1935. We have very strong men's and ladies' sections.
