Golf has been played on Rushmere Heath since the late 1800's when it was the home of the Ipswich Golf Club.
In 1927 when the majority of the members elected to move to nearby privately owned land, Rushmere Golf Club was formed. The heath is a fine natural golf course situated just on the outskirts of Ipswich.
Most holes are bounded by gorse and there are many fine oak trees providing not only natural habitat for birds and other wildlife but demanding care and accuracy from many of the tees.
Over 400 acres of Rushmere Heath is registered common land and in addition to the 15 holes rented from the commoners, the club owns 17 acres which constitute the 3rd, 4th and 5th holes.
The clubhouse, formerly an old school building, was bought by the club in 1928 and has been extended over the years into the spacious, welcoming venue enjoyed by members and visitors today.
