DescriptionBlack and white print which has been tinted with colour. There are two photographs joined together in the centre to make a panoramic view. The course is divided by a road which is in the centre of the photograph. On the left is part of the Wellington Golf course with three people on the green. One person is sitting on the side looking towards the people playing. Another two people are standing further round to the left. In the foreground is a garden area with small bushes. In the centre the road goes off to the left and right of the picture. On the left behind the golf course are a group of buildings with the hills behind. In the centre of the picture is a car on the road. On the right hand side of the photograph is another area of the golf course. There are four people on the green. In the foreground is the road with a number of vintage cars parked along the edge. Behind the green is a fenceline and behind the fence is a building to the right. A large house is in the centre right. A row of trees and the hills are in the background. The caption underneath reads: "A popular pastime", Wellington Golf Club, 1911.

One copy of this photo describes the scene as the 'beginnings of Wellington Golf Club which moved from Miramar. Club was formed in 1894, and moved to Barton's Bush in 1905.'
There is a more brightly tinted version of the right-hand half of the picture.
