The Weld Club is a private male-only social club in Perth, Western Australia.[2][3] Founded in 1871 as a gentlemen's club, it is named after Frederick Weld, the chronologically first patron of the club and the Governor of Western Australia at the time.
Building
As of May 2022[update], the club occupies a building designed by Talbot Hobbs and constructed in 1892 by the Bunning Brothers,[1][4] the founders of Bunnings, for the organisation. It is situated at the corner of The Esplanade and Barrack Street, immediately across the street from Stirling Gardens. Appraised for conservation work,[5] it is heritage-listed and has a number of histories of both the club and building published.[6][7][8][9]
