The Country Landowners' Association was founded in 1907 under the name of the Central Land Association. The name was changed to the Central Landowners' Association in 1918, to the Country Landowners' Association in 1949 and then to the Country Land and Business Association. The aim of the CLA was to represent and protect the interests of the agricultural landowner. It had county branches each of which had a committee. By 1921 there were 33 branches throughout England and Wales and CLA membership was at 4000. By 1945 this had risen to 10365 and by its jubilee year in 1957 the CLA had nearly 32 000 members
