Work has been completed on a £200,000 refurbishment project at Sheffield's Tinsley Park Golf Course.

The investment from leisure operator Sheffield International Venues (SIV) has seen renovations to the clubhouse and improvements to the public areas and changing rooms in the building, which was originally the first lord mayor of Sheffield's dwelling.

Other improvements include the addition of a café and bar into the downstairs area of the clubhouse to serve hot and cold food and drinks, which will be open to the public and golfers.

The injection of funds is part of a wider investment plan which will see the course receive further funding for more substantial works in the next five years.

Andy Carnall, golf manager at SIV, said: "This investment project is good news for Tinsley Park because it is very much the start of a new future for the club. We will be working hard over the next five years to complete further work on the course to really bring all the facilities up to a really high standard.

"The improvements will attract a number of golfers to this already popular course and will allow us to provide golf society days and corporate events, further increasing what we have to offer for our members and other visitors."

SIV operates 14 venues in Sheffield including Ponds Forge International Sports Centre, the English Institute of Sport - Sheffield and iceSheffield. It also runs three other golf courses in Sheffield and Chesterfield - Tapton Park, Beauchief and Birley Wood, which combined with Tinsley Park deliver 200,000 rounds per year.

SIV has recently completed a similar £250,000 investment project at Tapton Park Golf Course.
