St George's Club

The St George's Club included members who were receiving a medical education at St George's Hospital at Hyde Park Corner.

It was active in the 1840s and entered coxed four events at Henley Royal Regatta.

The St George's boat came third in the Stewards' Challenge Cup in 1841 but won the event in 1843 with the crew of G. Jeffreys, J. Hodding, G. Collier, T. B. Bumpstead (stroke) and A. Johnson (cox).

In 1847 at Henley St George's were runners up in the Visitors' Challenge Cup to Christ Church, Oxford.

In the same regatta William Falls and W Coulthard rowing for St George's won the Silver Wherries beating T Pollock and T H Fellows of Leander Club in the final.
