Harry HighamPrint Page
The plaque commemorates Harry Higham, an employee of the Riversdale Golf Club for 35 years.
When St. John's Wood was sold to Riversdale, he stayed on, helping lay out the course and then as greenkeeper, took charge of the course and grounds until ill-health forced him to retire many years later.
During those years as greenkeeper he also planted most of the trees at Riversdale and also laid out and cared for the gardens in front of the club-house.
Note: Permission to view should be gained from Riversdale Golf Club.
