The Berkshire Golf Club is a Private Members' Club which was founded in 1928 when both Courses were constructed by the Office of Crown Lands on estates once used by Queen Anne for her hunting parties in the 17th/18th century.
The Club has hosted many Amateur events over the years, of note being The English Amateur Championships, The British Seniors Open Championships, the English Ladies' Close Amateur Championships, The English Senior Ladies' Matchplay Championships, the Women's Home Internationals and the Vagliano Trophy played between Great Britain and Ireland versus The Continent of Europe.
In addition to hosting The London Amateur Foursomes every three years, the Club hosts two important Amateur events annually, The Berkshire Trophy for Gentlemen and The Lady Astor Salver for Ladies.
The Berkshire has the unique distinction of having a golf course which has six Par 3s, six Par 4s and six Par 5s - The Red Course.
