Originally founded as Claremont Golf Club in 1906 as a nine hole course on land around "Teapot Hall" in Radcliff Park Road, Salford, the club had an initial membership of 200 and a visitor day fee of 1/- (one shilling).

Claremont Golf Club continued to prosper until it was formally wound up on Monday 9th March 1925 due to major road development through the site with a final membership of 400.

New land was then leased alongside the old course and new club re-formed to be known as Swinton Park Golf Club, taking its name from the land upon which the new course was laid out, the following report appeared in the daily despatch on 26th May 1926.

"With a new name and a new course, the old Claremont Golf Club has taken up a new lease of life, and, one imagines, commenced an era of new prosperity." The total area now occupied is about 100 acres, during 1997 a new clubhouse was constructed and then opened on 17th January 1998.

Approaching the end of 1999, to compliment the new club house there is a fine parkland course which has benefited over the past few years from various tree planting programmes and alterations/additions to water hazards making it a truly exciting place to be at the start of the 21st Century.
