A New ROSL Welcome: Heritage at the Heart

RESTORE AND PRESERVE ROSL’S UNIQUE HERITAGE FOR FUTURE GENERATIONS

As ROSL continues its journey in restoring our marvellous Grade I listed clubhouse, Over-Seas House, we invite our members to support us to complete the final piece of the architectural jigsaw.

Vernon House was acquired by the Royal Over-Seas League in 1921 for a mere £45,000, but dates back to 1835, and constitutes a significant part of the architecture. Our plan is to now restore the entrance hall within Vernon House to its former glory. The arrival experience members and their guests receive is at the very heart of ROSL – a first impression is often the last impression.

We are a London based institution with global reputation and outreach, the entrance is a gateway to a world of culture, heritage, public affairs, arts and dining; our aim is to restore this space into a welcome that reflects this.

To deliver this project, we need to raise £300,000. We are asking for the generous support from our membership to reach this ambitious target, this would equate to £40 per member, an amount which we hope may be realistic for many, but any size donation will make a difference.

Should you be able to support this final significant development to the Royal Over-Seas League clubhouse, we will have an entrance hall which is sympathetically restored, preserving ROSL’s architecture and heritage, creating a welcome which is fit for a King!
Future developments and updates on this project will be shared with our members each quarter.
