Within a few years, demand for membership was so great that it was agreed to make the club open to any members. At that time Croquet was also played at the club.

Many improvements were made to the facilities and playing surfaces and between 1923 and 1925 the club purchased its present land from the church and also land from a local builder for a consideration of £1,250. In 1970 negotiations took place to amalgamate with Lansdown Squash Club which owned land in St Stephens Road. This land was sold to Bath University and the proceeds funded the construction of four new courts behind the existing clubhouse and changing rooms.

In 1979 the club took its first steps towards converting the hallowed grass tennis courts to a synthetic surface. After much deliberation it was agreed to convert two courts to an Astroturf surface and over the next fifteen years all of the grass courts were replaced in this way, with the retention of three tarmac courts on the lower part of the grounds.

Extensive work was also undertaken to convert space occupied by one of the grass courts to a second croquet lawn which allowed the croquet section of the club to grow.

The Astroturf courts transformed the tennis section of the Club and membership numbers grew steadily. Floodlighting was also introduced in the 1970’s and improved in 1989 and again in 2003. The Clubhouse was extensively redeveloped in 1997.
