ABSTRACT
The Chauncey Club is a conference centre located outside the London greenbelt, in a pastoral riverside setting. It is owned by Kingston Oil, a UK-based multi-national company. Since it was acquired in the early 1950s the Club has served well as a setting for training sessions, corporate conferences, team bonding events (when in fashion), and as a place for holidays for frugal employees. It consists of a number of nineteenth century buildings, originally large, elegant houses. One contains the conference rooms, dining areas and administration. The others are used for accommodation, typically containing 20 to 30 rooms.
