Box Hill Golf Club
Box Hill Golf Club traces its antecedents to the Surrey Hills Golf Club which was a flourishing Club in 1892. In 1892 there were only two other Clubs in existence in the Melbourne area, they were Melbourne (later Royal Melbourne) and Geelong Golf Clubs.
The original Course was a block of land situated between Mount Albert Station and Whitehorse Road. This land was sub-divided in 1907. The subdivision saw the establishment of the Riversdale Golf Club in 1908 and in 1909 the Surrey Hills Golf Club continued at land situated from Albion Road to Whitehorse Road (part of which is now the Box Hill Cemetery). This land was again subdivided and the determined Surrey Hills Members moved to the east side of Middleborough Road and at this time changed their Club name to Box Hill Golf Club.
