| Abstract/Contents: | Profiles the construction of Renaissance Club in Archerfield, Scotland, designed by Renaissance Golf Design. Describes the site, stating that "the soil is extremely sandy, and it's clear that the influence of the links is strong, but anyone who has visited the Open at Muirfield and parked on the North Berwich side of the golf course will know the land." Mentions that "one unexpected development during construction has been the discovery of the remains of several medieval houses under what is to become the seventeenth fairway." Describes potential construction challenges, including tree removal. Concludes that "it remains far too early to make any detailed judgements about the course, but those of us who have had the chance to view the site in construction can only look forward to seeing the finished product." |
