Don't laugh, but I was wondering whether it might be a golf club house or similar (think Lytham St Annes golf course https://www.visitlancashire.com/things-to-do/royal-lytham-and-st-annes-golf-club-p8149 )

I was wondering about a golf club house too, or a hotel. (But I haven't had any ideas yet, bright or otherwise.)

We can do mock tudor in NI too!  This is Sandown Park in Belfast, c1910.  It was divided into 4 villas.  (My great grandfather lived in one, and his mother-in-law lived in another.) 

In the foreground is a railway stop.  All completely surrounded by houses now of course.  The railway line is a greenway.

Spidermonkey’s one might be divided up too.  Or do we think it’s all one house?

My feeling was that it's all one house/hotel/clubhouse etc. If someone was building a house on that scale in the middle of a field (apparently), I think it's very unlikely that it would be either semi-detached or so close to its neighbour that you can't see the gap between them.

But that's when it was built - for all we know it might now be surrounded by a modern estate of little boxes and divided into flats.

My first thought was it was a golf club house so I’m now going round all the Southport area Golf Clubs looking at op photos of their gold clubs. I’ve ruled out Hesketh Golf Club I think.

No success so far.

It does look like some kind of Country Club but a search hasn't thrown up anything yet.

Saw pictures and thought - large mock-Tudor pub.  Then did a google image search and lots of similar buildings, which could be anywhere in the country.
