MEMBER LOGIN CONTACT STRATFORD HOUSE Since 1962, the Club’s home has been Grade I listed Stratford House - one of the most impressive surviving examples of Georgian architecture in this part of London. The building was constructed in the 1770s for Edward Stratford, later the second Earl of Aldborough. Stratford paid £40,000 for the Robert Adam-inspired building and the site, formerly occupied by the Lord Mayor of London's Banqueting House. SUBSTANTIAL RENOVATIONS The House was variously remodelled over the years, including the addition of a second storey on the east and west wings in the 1890s. However, it was in 1908 when Lord Derby purchased the house that the most extensive alterations were set in motion. Lord Derby bought additional property in Marylebone Lane, removed the former stables and built a Banqueting Hall with a Grand Ballroom above. The Club continues to evolve and make improvements for Members, including the addition of eight additional bedrooms and the ever-popular Calcutta Light Horse Bar... EVOLUTION OF THE HOUSE When Stratford House was purchased by the Oriental Club in 1960, it was necessary to make certain alterations, as the needs of a Club were different to a residence. The Club continues to evolve and make improvements for Members, including the addition of eight additional bedrooms, the ever-popular Calcutta Light Horse Bar, the sensitive restoration of the principle rooms and the development of the walled Courtyard and all-weather Shamiana. HISTORY & HERITAGE The Club treasures its rich history and the extraordinary characters who have been associated with it.
