- Ranelagh_Club abstract "The Ranelagh Club was a famous polo club located at Barn Elms in South West London, England. It was founded in 1878 as a split-off from the Hurlingham Club and by 1894 was the largest polo club in the world. The club had approximately 3000 members in 1913, including many prominent military figures and members of different royal families.At its height the Ranelagh Club consisted of a large club-house (the inherited manor house of Barn Elms), four polo grounds, ten croquet lawns, two tennis courts and an 18-hole golf course. There were also two lakes for rowing.As the 20th century continued, the club suffered from diminishing patronage and dwindling funds. The club was closed shortly before World War II, and the polo grounds used for allotments under the Dig for Victory scheme. The club-house burnt down in 1954. The lake was then drained, and the site converted into playing fields. Trees now cover the area which was previously occupied by the club-house and its gardens, and an athletics track resides on top of the drained land, reclaimed from the old lake.The entire site now constitutes the Barn Elms open space, consisting of two separately-operated sports facilities. There is very little left to be seen of the Ranelagh Club except an ice house and a 300m long driveway entrance off the Lower Richmond Road, which now leads to the council housing of the Ranelagh estate.".
