London - Whitehall - Civil Service Club

This is an excerpt from the tour Whitehall  found on   www.obelisktours.co.uk

 Set slightly back from the main street line is the Civil Service Club - a private club for all Civil Servants including employees of the Crown or the Police.   They provide accommodation, a bar and dining facilities.  They arrange banquets, outings, discounted tickets, quiz nights, comedy nights, poker, tours and provide an exclusive Westminster location for conferences, meetings, weddings and private dining.   

The site was for the London County Council Fire Station and the indented forecourt allowed room for the horses to be attached to the fire engines without blocking the street.
