The Winchester Club - Series 1
CHALK FARM PARADE / ADELIADE ROAD NW3 - Pictures by Charly & Dean Swain

This location is used throughout series 1. According to Dean, this was a real club at the time of filming, probably called The Eaton.
As you can see from the pictures, the original club is almost unrecognisable these days.

The Winchester Club - Portland Road W11, Notting Hill

This location is in Portland Rd W11, Notting Hill. The doorway used for the entrance to the Winchester Club is at 133a Portland Rd directly next door to a bar called “Julies”. In many episodes Arthur is seen getting in or out of his car outside the club, and in one episode "A Load of Bull & A Pat On The Back" the farmer's Rolls is seen approaching the club passing the pub The Portland Arms (this is no longer a pub and is now a high brow restaurant). This location was used mainly in the first few series and then switched to other locations for the later series.

Out of interest, the location was also used in the series four episode of The Sweeney entitled 'Nightmare'
- notice in the right hand picture that Regan (John Thaw) walks right up to number 133!

Thanks to fellow fan ConfidentClive for this information.
