London’s clubs were concentrated in the affluent district around the St James area, in what became known as ‘Clubland’. While clubs were originally aristocratic, by the early 19th century they were bastions of the contemporary class system, wielding extremely strict controls over the background and calibre of potential members. Clubs tended to reflect common interests – political, professional or cultural – reinforced in the choice of members, which ensured that they would provide a coming-together of like-minded people.

Andrew Robert Buxton Cavendish, the 11th Duke of Devonshire, said, “You can, to a very considerable extent, judge a man’s tastes, possibly even his character, by the club to which he belongs.”

If White’s (the oldest club) was for the Tories, Brook’s was for the Whigs, and Boodle’s was for the country set, then the Carlton Club was for the Conservatives, and the Reform Club was for the Liberals.
