Northumberland Golf Club formed at High Gosforth Park in 1898. The club was first based in a wooden hut on the north side of the straight mile of the racecourse. This was replaced in 1902 by a prefabricated pavilion supplied by Boulton & Paul of Norwich on the south side of the straight. Once trams started running to the west entrance in 1904, a third clubhouse was opened on its present site in 1905. In 1913 the present clubhouse was designed by Dennis Hill of Graham & Hill, in Arts and Crafts style. It cost £5000. Despite alterations, the clubhouse remains one of the best preserved historic sporting structures in Tyne and Wear. 14 of the 18 holes lie within the racecourse, so players have to cross the track four times.

1930s

Moor Court flats were built in 1938 to Art Deco designs by Clarance Soloman of Jesmond. The flats had an adjoining block of twelve garages ('motor houses') with a squash court above. Squash derived from the game of rackets. It became popular in the 1930s when courts were commonly built at hotels. Gosforth Squash Club was founded in 1953.

The 1870 Town Moor Improvement Act set aside part of the Town Moor for recreation. Golf was played informally on the recreation ground (later to be called Exhibition Park) which was also used by cricketers and footballers. In 1891 a group of gentlemen golfers petitioned the Freemen and town council to provide an alternative area. In October 1891 The City of Newcastle Golf Club was formed. They paid ten guineas a year for the site. The 18 hole course was designed by Tom Morris Senior of St. Andrew's. The Town Moor golf course was officially opened on 21 September 1892. The greens had to be fenced off to keep out the grazing cattle. The clubhouse of the newly formed City of Newcastle Golf Club was Chimney Mill on Claremont Road (HER 4319). The club converted the mill into their clubhouse and added a rooftop observation gallery costing £1500. The club president was John William Pease, a Quaker banker. The pediment above the door still reads 'GOLF CLUB'. In June 1892 the Newcastle United Workmen's Golf Club was set up and shared the course. In 1898 130 members of the City of Newcastle Club broke away and set up the Northumberland Golf Club. In 1907 the remainder formed the Gosforth Golf Club. The Newcastle United Golf Club bought the clubhouse for a token £13. Roadworks split the clubhouse from the golf course in 1973. A new Newcastle United course was opened on Nun's Moor to the west and remains in use.

Originally part of Nun's Moor (HER 1357). Part of Hunter's Moor is occupied by the former Fenham Barracks (HER 4093). In 1213 the Town Moor was granted to the town by King John. But the rights to its herbage (grazing of livestock) were retained by The Freeman of Newcastle, a body whose origins pre-date the Norman Conquest of 1066. The intake system allows the Freemen to designate up to 100 acres of the Town Moor for purposes other than grazing, on a lease no longer than 99 years. Hunter's Moor was used by Fenham Barracks and Newcastle United as a sports and training ground from the 1960s until the 1980s.
