Travellers Club

Travellers Club by Charles Barry, Pall Mall, London

Travellers Club by Charles Barry, 1832
Pall Mall
London, January 2007

“The Travellers Club is a private gentlemen's club situated at 106 Pall Mall in London, United Kingdom. It is the oldest of the surviving Pall Mall clubs, established in 1819, and is one of the most exclusive. It was described as ‘the quintessential English gentleman's club’ by the Los Angeles Times in 2004. The original concept for the club, conceived by Lord Castlereagh and others, dates from the conclusion of the Napoleonic Wars. They envisaged a club where gentlemen who travelled abroad could meet and offer hospitality to distinguished foreign visitors. The original rules from 1819 excluded from membership anyone ‘who has not travelled out of the British islands to a distance of at least five hundred miles from London in a direct line’.” (Travellers Club, Wikipedia)
