Welcome to Talbot House, the every man's club from the First World War. Situated behind the lines, it became a haven in hell for thousands of troops.

Finishing off the Aldenham School #Battlefields tour with a moment of reflection in Tubby's Talbot House . I'll never tire of this oasis of calm. #wewillrememberthem


Home from home Tubby's Talbot House “Come into the garden and forget about the War” (Mr Higginson doing his best impression of Pte Pettifer!)


In true Tubby's Talbot House style, we have drunk tea and had a service in the Upper Room. You can decide which was more important to the troops of the First World War.


Mr Lowis’ new First World War Ypres Salient map got an outing today (when he remembered that he had it 😖!) Here it is Tubby's Talbot House



During a Battlefield Study in Belgium Padre Gower, chaplain to 1 ATR, performed Baptisms for three recruits at Talbot House. Tubby's Talbot House is affectionately linked with the Army and chaplaincy thanks to Padre Philip “Tubby” Clayton who opened a soldiers club there during WWI.


One of the highlights of my job is sharing personal stories. I look after Thomas Morrow's death penny, so when I can, I tell his at Commonwealth War Graves Lijssenthoek. And of course, being a red head, it's only right to tell Ginger's story before a brew Tubby's Talbot House with Simon Louagie.


Tubby's Talbot House Our Talbot House rose is flowering today, just as my friend Tom Carradine heads back over to the Salient. Best wishes to all in Poperinge. ♥️🇧🇪



Whenever I visit the Chapel Tubby's Talbot House it seems that the Great War soldiers who worshipped & sought solace there are only just out of sight, their prayers & hymns just on the edge of hearing. Please support its restoration if you are able #WW1 #FWW gofund.me/295a5d8f

At Tubby's Talbot House waiting for Simon Louagie to participate in the World Chain of Light 2024. Always peaceful to be in the Chapel of Talbot House.
