The Farmers Club launches the CLUB ROOM

The Club Room formerly the Forty Room has been launched!! Virginia Masser explains

This room, a popular Club function room, was formerly called the Forty Room. The name was based on The Forty Club, a worldwide Wandering Cricket Club who used the room regularly for their meetings between 1969 and 2021. Whilst we have re-named it the “Club Room” the Farmers Club retains its strong links with The Forty Club, who will continue to use the Club’s function rooms. The Club Room, the function room on the Upper Ground Floor overlooking Whitehall Court now hosts an array of Farmers Club memorabilia. This includes The Farmers Club Cup, The Last Officers Board that was on the wall in the Upper Ground Corridor pre Project CREST in 2016, the Farmers Club Pavilion plaques, one from when Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother opened the Pavilion on 9th July 1964, club signage from days gone by and some memorable moments that have been recorded in our Visitors books. This wonderful history is now on show for you all to see, to reminisce about historic Club events, special moments in time and to recollect your visits to the Club. The Club Room is a function room that can hold 14 people around a boardroom table for a meeting, lunch or dinner or 25 for a stand up cocktail reception.
