That would have been Southwood GC. The OP was a member there and I played it regularly when I lived down there. Sadly no longer there but not sure what's in its place.
I have a feeling it maybe housing, l will ask me mate who still live nearby.

Been reading about this and saw an article on Dustin Johnson and his reasons behind playing in it.
A quote from him in the article after mentions he had £72 million in winnings already in his career and has joined up for a reported £150 million was... "I don't want to play golf for my whole life and this is a chance to make that happen"
A bloke with only £72 million in winnings and worried he might have to play golf all his life? He must have expensive taste or a serious Charlie habit
Best I’ve ever seen it, the greens were fantastic yesterday. In fact I wrote an email to the secretary to congratulate everyone on their efforts.Castle Eden is looking mighty fine at the minute. The greens are best they've been for a long time. The only issue is the course will bake in this heat and it will become unplayable, just in time for the Club Championships this weekend.

I’ve promised to drag @farnboromackem up for a game shortly.

Rain forecast for Saturday so could be uncomfortable for those in Round 1 and the 3rd division. Sunday might have a little more give in it.Castle Eden is looking mighty fine at the minute.
