The London club that transports you to 1950s India

Outlook

Available for over a year

Off one of London's busiest streets, the Strand, you will find 'The India Club'. It was set up in the 1950s, not long after India's independence from the UK. One of it's founding members was Jawaharlal Nehru, the first prime minister of a newly independent India and if you go to the club now, it doesn't looks as though much has been changed since those early days.
