The 18-hole course has seen membership soar to more than 750 since its amalgamation with Stressholme Golf Club a few years ago.

Club professional Ralph Givens explained: “We needed a new pro shop to meet the increased demand. The old one was too small and didn’t have enough space to display all our stock.”

The club gave MicroSlat’s Managing Director Terry Dady a free hand in designing the new layout and using the company’s all-aluminium display solutions.

Terry explained: “Because we started with a blank canvas I had unprecedented flexibility. For a fully integrated look, we left cables hanging behind the display panels, cut the slatwall and designed special finishers for the electrical sockets. So the slatwall ran flush from floor to ceiling the skirting boards and architraves were built out by an extra 50mm.
