There are a number of online references to the Royal Societies Club, either to specific events or lectures held there, or in connection with particular individuals and their membership of this august body, but I have so far been unable to find any sources giving further information about Club itself.

There is a little about the building at 63 St James's Street occupied by the Club (between 1894 and about 1941) at the British History Online site, and also a photograph.
