Hole 15: Corn Beef

Par: 3

Distance: 148 metres

The degree of difficulty with this hole varies with wind direction.

The tee area is elevated which makes the hole look shorter than you think.

It has a native garden in front of the green, bunkers on the right and should you fly the green, trouble awaits you.

The green requires your attention.

Corn Beef Colliery 1891 - 1902

Corn Beef Colliery was a small mine opened in 1891, south of Bulli Pass and the Bulli Colliery B entry.

The lower part of the Bulli Seam at this mine was naturally coked, and the upper half was good coal. Both products were mined with the coked product finding a market for the Sydney Trams because of its smokeless qualities when burnt.

The mine had a history of openings, closings, and changes of owners before it finally closed in 1902.
