Carlton Club, Private gentlemen's club in St James's, London

The Carlton Club occupies a Georgian building at 69 St James's Street, featuring traditional dining rooms and numerous political portraits from the 18th century.

Founded in 1832 by Tory peers, the Carlton Club served as the original meeting place for Conservative Party members before the establishment of Conservative Central Office.

The club maintains a selective membership process where candidates need nomination from current members, reflecting long-standing British social club traditions.

Members gain access to dining facilities, meeting spaces, and networking opportunities with influential figures from politics, business, and society sectors.

The October 1922 meeting at Carlton Club led to Conservative MPs withdrawing support from David Lloyd George's coalition government, changing British political direction.
