The Kimberley Club Attractions |
The Kimberley Club was founded in August 1881. Leading men of Kimberley wanted a meeting place along the lines of London clubs where they could enjoy a drink or two, good food and the company of their peers, in comfort, away from the dust and dryness of the diggings.
Cecil John Rhodes was the prime mover in the founding of the Club. Some of the original members were Cecil Rhodes and his partner, Charles D. Rudd and Dr Leander Starr Jameson, as well as mining magnate Lionel Phillips and JB Robinson. Needless to say it was the men of the diamond industry who predominated.
