Golf in Norwich

Norwich is one of Connecticut's historic small cities, positioned at the confluence of the Shetucket and Yantic rivers where they form the Thames River, with a downtown that reflects its eighteenth-century origins as a prosperous port and manufacturing center. The city's late-Victorian commercial architecture and the Norwichtown historic district preserve the material record of a community that was among Connecticut's most significant economic centers before the decline of the textile industry. Norwich Golf Course serves as the municipal facility for a working city with deep local roots, while Malerba's Golf Driving Range provides practice facilities. The Thames River corridor connects Norwich to New London and the Sound, giving the city both inland and maritime dimensions to its identity.
