This private club situated on the first floor at the end of a terraced street has probably the most intact historic 'pub-like' interior in a club in the country. There is an intact billiard room; an island style servery and a little used lounge at the rear. Up the staircase from the front door you enter the billiard room with its full sized snooker table and over 100 year old fixed seating on a platform to be able to view the game.

To the left is the shuttered servery with rising screens on three sides - to the billiard room and small snugs to the left and right. Note the old cupboards within the servery. The left hand side snug has a door, retains its original fixed seating and here the lower part of the left of four bays of the screened bar is kept permanently closed. The right hand side snug has a door, original fixed seating and two bays of screened servery; also the door to the servery.

To the rear through curtains is a larger room with fixed seating all around. Look for the hatch with two rings in the floor which is the fire escape. The ladies is the original gents and has an inter-war tiled dado throughout. The gents is the conversion of a former store room. The hatch for the original Warpdressers Union subs payments is still in situ on the ground floor. Non-members are welcome to visit.
