Alcester London House Club History
Back in 1927 it had been felt for some years that some commodious premises were required in Alcester to provide opportunities for social intercourse and for recreation, and so contribute to the social life of the town.
The property in High Street known as London House, came onto the market and was purchased.
Its first president Colonel Lord Henry Seymour, D.S.O, J.P., of Park Hall, was a gentleman who was ever ready and willing to do anything possible for the betterment and fuller enjoyment of life by his fellow men.
