Reedswood Power Station Golf Course, Walsall. (WW2 - 2007)

The early course was laid out following WW2 around the now demolished Reedswood Power Station, Birchills, and was probably for the use of employees at the power station.

A relatively short course there is evidence that it could have had eighteen-holes during the 1950s.

Following the demolition of the power station in 1987 a nine-hole municipal course was laid out by Walsall Corporation. This course closed in 2007 and has reverted to nature.
