Description
'Votes for Women' cloth badge with green stitching and purple lettering.
The address 4 Clements Inn was the site of the WSPU office and London residence of the Pethick Lawrences. Christabel Pankhurst describes their headquarters at Clements Inn as "a hive seething with activity… As department was added to department, Clement’s Inn seemed always to have one more room to offer." (9 February 1907)
The offices are pictured in H.G. Wells novel 'Ann Veronica', likely due to the close proximity of Clements Inn to the Fabian Society, of which Wells was a leading member.
