Summary

Frosterley Club was established in 1976 as a social club for long-standing members of the Bureau of Meteorology. It adopted its name from the building named Frosterley, in Carlton Victoria, which was the headquarters of the Commonwealth Bureau of Meteorology from 1908 until the early 1970s.
