A Grand
"Union" day Out. |
Members do
occasionally leave the tranquillity of their club premises in Temple
Street and face the rigours of other venues for pub lunches in the
countryside. Other treats include going to the races at Towster or
nearby county cricket matches but nothing compares with a recent
expedition along the Grand Union Canal. To see our intrepid
boaters click the picture. |

The Aylesbury
Literary Club stands in the midst of the hurry and bustle of a busy
town. For over a hundred years it has been a quiet oasis, and an
important link in the business community. From the earliest days the
objects of the Club were 'the promotion of social intercourse and the
provision of refreshments'. This still holds true today. |

CORONA VIRUS
UPDATE The Aylesbury Literary Club are pleased to announce the
club will reopen under Covid-19 rules Stage 3 from Monday the 17th
May 2021. Members are welcome to return but no details have been
advised on numbers allowed in the club at any one time so members
should check with our Steward if pre-booking is necessary. |
|
Within the Club
there is a comfortable lounge-bar that is accessible to members at
all times with the bar open between 12 noon and 3pm. The ground floor
is shared with our principal tenant Temple
Street Wine Bar,
which conveniently supplies food for the club bar. |
On the first
floor is the snooker room housing two excellent and professionally
maintained tables. Annual Snooker & Billiards competitions.
Quite a few
members are keen golfers and each year a number of tournaments are
held. Several trophies are competed for, amongst them the Foley Cup. |
|
In recent years
Aylesbury has changed dramatically - new businesses, new faces, and
there are many who are unaware of the Club's existence. For that
reason we are always looking to introduce it to a wider audience.
Normally we
have the service of our Steward, Les Williams, looking after the
members between 12:00 noon and 3:00 pm on weekdays. Prospective
members may call by appointment between these times when Les will be
pleased to pass details of our club membership while observing social
distancing procedures, |
Presently our
online membership enquiry service is suspended. It seems many idle
hands find it pleasing to to misuse this facility. After the Corona
virus pandemic is declared over we will re-introduce this service but
incorporate an I am not a robot check back function.
Please keep well and come back to this site in better times.
Meanwhile, you may contact us using the Royal Mail or dropping a note
in our letterbox at the address given below. |
