The Cyclists’ Touring Club is the first and oldest touring club in the world. It was founded in 1878. Cast iron plaques of the Winged Wheel that the club distributed over 100 years ago to designate approved inns and hotels still remain on many buildings across the country. The two foot diameter plaques are always under threat of redevelopment or by ignorant disregard. Please report any new sightings or changes, and please adopt a sign of your own if you can, looking after its well-being. Inform the occupant of the building of its history and encourage preservation.

In these listings, if you can fill in any missing information or confirm an uncertain sighting then please let the author of this website know. We will credit your name.

This photo of an old hotel has a CTC Quarters sign above the door. The lamp seems to be marked “CROWN HOTEL”  Does anyone know where it is?
