Candlewick Ward Club was founded in the early 18th century or before. It was called The Candlewick Club until 1739 when it was renamed Candlewick Ward Club. The City of London was divided into wards for the purpose of government as early as Norman times. The wards had responsibility to keep the peace, supervise trade and oversee sanitation, and each ward has the right to elect an Alderman and Commoners to sit in the Court of Common Council. The Candlewick ward is situated near Monument and London Bridge, bounded to the north by Lombard Street, the east by Gracechurch Street, the south by Arthur Street and the west by Abchurch Lane. The Ward Club is a social club for those who live and work within the ward. It organises events such as talks, lectures, visits and outings, luncheons, dinners and church services. A newsletter is also produced.

They were deposited by Candlewick Ward Club between 1928 and 2002, and were catalogued by members of Guildhall Library staff.
