History

The club was formed in 1926, with land off Longsight Road being leased from John Castle, a local builder and developer. The initial development consisted of four red shale courts, a putting green and a timber-built pavilion, which was later extended.  The pavilion was lit by gas lights and had a club room, kitchen, ladies' and gentlemen’s changing rooms together with a balcony area running across the whole length of the front of the pavilion.

Holcombe Brook played friendly matches against other clubs in East Lancashire and the club altered very little up until 1970, when John Castle passed away and the executors of his will decided the land should be sold.
