Brooks's Club and Boodle's Club are both still there, and so is the Carlton Club at No. 69, which has been its home since bombs drove it from Pall Mall in 1940. Later amendments on the sheet show it in place of Arthur's Club, as well as offices on the former St James's Theatre site. The sheet also names Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Pictures Ltd, Lloyds Bank and the Constitutional Club, which closed in 1979, together with Dukes Hotel and the Stafford Hotel, both of which are still trading. Goad's plans were compiled to assess property and fire risk, and they were amended with pasted slips as uses and buildings changed. At Beresford House on St James's Street, an annotation in the Overseas League premises marks the basement and first floor vacant in October 1970, which is the latest dated correction. The sheet was resurveyed and reissued in September 1940, with a 1950 copyright date, and it superseded the March 1889 edition, an example of which is marked “obsolete”. The Volume IX key plan, acquired with the same group, records corrections to October 1970. Other streets on the sheet include Jermyn Street, King Street, Duke Street, Arlington Street, Bennet Street, Ryder Street, St James's Place, Park Place, Cleveland Row and Little St James's Street.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Antiquemapsandprints.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54371689300315,"sku":"P-9-001076","price":210.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0923\/9583\/1643\/files\/P-9-001076a.jpg?v=1792089905"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.antiquemapsandprints.com\/collections\/beresford-house.oembed","provider":"Antiquemapsandprints.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
