The illustration, devoid of commercial intent, showcases the proliferation of golf clubs and courses within convenient reach of London, a testament to the sport's growing appeal among the British populace. As the map reveals, the London area was dotted with an impressive array of golfing establishments. The metropolis itself boasted several clubs, including the prestigious Royal St. George's Golf Club in Sandwich, which has hosted The Open Championship numerous times. Surrounding London, a multitude of courses spread across the verdant English countryside, from the picturesque heathlands of Surrey and Kent to the tranquil grounds of Hertfordshire and Buckinghamshire.

This democratization of golf contributed to its widespread appeal and eventual recognition as a national pastime. In summary, this map print from Mary Evans Prints Online offers a unique perspective on the ever-growing popularity of golf in the early 20th century.
