Golf in Newbury

Newbury is an Essex County town at the mouth of the Parker River, between Rowley and Newburyport in the coastal North Shore corridor where the tidal marshes extend inland. Ould Newbury Golf Club serves this community in the upland above the Parker River's marshlands, in a town where the combination of the Plum Island barrier beach, the Parker River National Wildlife Refuge, and the agricultural land of the Parker River valley have preserved a landscape that is more open and varied than most Essex County communities at this distance from Boston. One course serves a modestly sized residential community in one of the North Shore's most distinctively preserved coastal settings.
