EDITORS COMMENTS
The Fishery Club in Maidenhead: A Riverside Retreat for Society in the 1910s Nestled along the picturesque banks of the River Thames in Maidenhead, The Fishery Club was one of the most fashionable riverside venues in this charming English town during the first half of the twentieth century. Established in the 1910s, the private members' club quickly became a popular destination for high society, offering a unique blend of leisure, entertainment, and natural beauty. The Fishery Club's idyllic location provided the perfect backdrop for its many attractions. Members could enjoy a day of fishing on the river, taking advantage of the club's excellent facilities and expert guidance from experienced fishermen. Alternatively, they could indulge in a spot of lunch or afternoon tea in the elegant dining room, which boasted stunning views of the Thames and the surrounding countryside. The club's social calendar was filled with a variety of events, from formal dinners and dance parties to more casual gatherings and outdoor activities. Guests included prominent members of the local gentry, as well as visiting dignitaries and royalty. In fact, the young Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, was known to have visited the Fishery Club in 1931, as seen in the photograph (no. 11808998). The Fishery Club's charm and exclusivity made it a beloved destination for those seeking a respite from the hustle and bustle of urban life. With its beautiful riverside setting, rich history, and commitment to providing a warm and welcoming atmosphere, The Fishery Club in Maidenhead remains an enduring symbol of the grace and elegance of a bygone era.
