History


The Grange Club was founded in 1832, in The Grange district of Edinburgh. In 1872 it moved to its current location at Raeburn Place in the Stockbridge district and has hosted out of its pavilion since 1894. The pavilion cost £1,400 and was officially opened on 29 June 1895 by Lord Moncrieff. The pavilion was restored in 1998 at a cost of £450,000.[1]

After the Scottish Cricket Union disbanded in 1884 The Grange Club assumed responsibility as the governing body of cricket in Scotland for a time and still holds considerable national influence.

The decorative scheme to the interior of the Pavilion is designed to complement the exterior. The Long Room, is modelled on the Marylebone Cricket Club's 'Long Room' at Lord's Cricket Ground, London.

The Club was also associated with The Dyvours Club, Edinburgh's oldest lawn tennis club, who were founded in 1883, and played on the grounds.[2]
