Tattersall's clubs, Melbourne

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

There were two short-lived Tattersall's clubs in Melbourne, Australia, in the early 1900s: Melbourne Tattersall's Club, associated with bookmaker Sol Green, and John Wren's City Tattersall's Club.

Melbourne Tattersall's Club

The Melbourne Tattersall's Club was a licensed club of 2240 members with rooms in Royal Lane, off Bourke Street about 30 yards (27 m) from the corner. It had a large room 36 by 45 feet (11 m × 14 m) downstairs, furnished with tables, Vienna chairs and so on, also several smaller rooms and upstairs a billiard room with two tables, smoking room, reading room and members' accommodation. The premises were rented from Sol Green, a prominent Melbourne bookmaker. David Cullen was secretary from October 1903. Membership was 10s. annually. It closed January 1907 amid protracted litigation.[1]

On 18 February 1907 the Beaufort Club was opened in the same premises with David Cullen as secretary and 95 members. An application for a licence was refused by Judge Molesworth and Inspector Graham of the Metropolitan Licensing Court, on the grounds that it bore all the hallmarks of its predecessor as a venue for betting on horse races.[1]

City Tattersall's Club

John Wren founded the City Tattersall's Club at 222A–224 Bourke Street in 1903,[2] emulating Green, his bitter rival. It was closed down in May 1906, and six members were charged with conducting a premises for betting.[3]
