Chiswick Memorial Club, London

Hidden away in the back streets of Chiswick village, Afton House is this wonderfully stoic building. Donated as an ex-servicemen's club by the owners of the company that made Cherry Blossom boot polish, the Mason brothers. They started selling polish in their famous 'one penny tins' from 1906. Padawax, the polish with a sponge came out in the 1960s. Here's a commercial: http://vimeo.com/10279509
