In 1898, a new green was opened at the fourth hole, and several new bunkers added. Further improvements, especially to the tees were planned for 1897.
The new club house had been a great success, so much that the committee considered adding extensions to the house.
Total membership of the club was now 376, made up as follows.
| Location | Number | Names |
|---|---|---|
| Alloa | 2 | |
| Crossgates | 1 | |
| Dunfermline | 90 | |
| Edinburgh | 265 | |
| Inverkeithing | 9 | |
| Kirkcaldy | 2 | |
| Liverpool | 1 | James Stewart |
| North Queensferry | 4 | Ebenzer Fulton, Dr John Marshall, Phil Marshall NQ, D. M. Scott, School House, NQ |
| South Queensferry | 1 | |
| USA | 1 | Robert Lockhart, New York, USA |
So membership of the Dunfermline Golf Club was predominantly (70%) from Edinburgh!
1899 saw the publication of “Inverkeithing, North Queensferry, Limekilns, Charlestown, the Ferry Hills” by A. S. Cunningham.
This local history booklet, included a chart and description of the Ferryhill Golf Course in 1899.
