The two-storey green building at 54 High Street has been home the Buffalo Club since the Second World War. It was built in about 1897.

It was a restaurant in 1911, the contents of which were auctioned at 2PM on 11 October of that year, by Learmonth Duffy and Co.[1]

In November 1919 Josefa Andinach, ("widow now residing at 68 High Street") applied for an Eating House License for the Madrid Cafe at the same address. There was no license at that time.[2]

In 1925, a music shop called Spanney's (managed by Charles Ifla/Iffley)[3] opened at 68 Hight Street, which may have been this building.[4]

Before 1938 it may have had the street numbers 68-72.[5]
