Over 70 firefighters worked through Thursday night to try to control a blaze that has ripped through the Georgian neoclassical building, - The Glasgow Golf Club Killermont in Bearsden destroying almost 75% of it.
This is the Golf Club that the very first West of Scotland Ladies County match took place in 1909 between Renfrewshire and Argyllshire. -- See the RLCGA Website
It has also held numerous D&A County events throughout the years.
The alarm was first raised around 9.20pm on Thursday and, as of 11.30am on Friday, three small fires were still burning.
The fire started in the ground floor kitchen area of the clubhouse.
The Killermont course is closed until further notice, with efforts currently in place to establish a temporary base for the club at Gailes Links, the course it owns near Irvine, in Ayrshire.
