In brief

There had been a social club on Bournville Lane established by Cadbury Bros in the late 19th century. The lodge was built in 1895 by A. P. Walker. But the club behind was destroyed in a fire in 2020 and then demolished. The lodge is now occupied by Business in the Community.

Mondelez who owns Cadbury, said that the Cadbury Club will not reopen after the fire of 2020, as the membership has gone down. The Cadbury Club occupied a building built for the Bournville Athletic Club in the early 1900s, this was behind the lodge that still stands. The remains of the Cadbury Club building were demolished in early 2021.
