Talbot House Offer Reward for their Lost “Robin” In December 1915 two British army chaplains – the Reverends Phillip “Tubby” Clayton and Neville Talbot – opened a soldiers' rest and recreation centre, named Talbot House, in Poperinge, Belgium. On 15 December 1921, at the now-demolished Grosvenor House in Park Lane, London, a “Round Robin”, was signed by all those present, who wished the text on the document to be read aloud once again on the centenary of the opening of Talbot House (also known as Toc H). The original document , was last seen at the Toc H archives in London but now appears lost.
