Guards' Club

Guards' Club

The Guards' Club, established in 1810, was a London gentlemen's club for members of the Guards Division, traditionally the most socially elite section of the British Army. In 1976 it gave up its premises and merged with the Cavalry Club to form the Cavalry and Guards Club.
