The Kingsbridge Branch was formed in 1921 and original Branch Premesis was a shed in Baptist Lane in Kingsbridge. Around 1971 the vision and 'drive' of the Committee moved the Branch to premesis off Fore Street. With a bar and entertainment the now formed Club really 'took off' and became an established venue within Kingsbridge.
The Committee then purchased the old Flour mill in Mill Street and re-developed it to form 3 shops, storage area and Garage. Retaining the upper floor to make a new club area.
Further vision by the Committee and good cash receipts enabled the purchase of a cottage in the town for the then Bar Steward and his family. The cottage is now let to a tenant but still the property of the Branch.
