London’s remaining men-only gentlemen’s clubs discuss female membership

Club secretaries at some institutions are understood to be consulting lawyers after vote at Garrick

Discussions are under way over whether to admit women at several of London's remaining gentlemen's clubs after this week's vote by Garrick club members to allow women to join after 193 years.

The Travellers Club, the Savile Club, the Beefsteak Club, Boodle's, Buck's, Brooks's, the East India Club and White's are among a handful of the remaining London clubs that still do not admit female members.
