“In 1910 the Society purchased 2-5 Henrietta Street, the site at the corner of Henrietta Place and Wimpole Street, which was opened by King George V and Queen Mary in May 1912. Until then, the Society met at 15 Cavendish Square, having moved out of Hanover Square two years earlier. The building at 1 Wimpole Street was designed by architects John Belcher and J. J. Joass. In the first nine months membership increased from 1,322 to 2,025.” (Royal Society of Medicine, Wikipedia)
