“. . . the Thames Sailing Club, the UK’s oldest river sailing club, founded in 1870. Located between Surbiton and Kingston on the Surrey bank of the River, the Victorian clubhouse overlooks one of London’s most beautiful stretches of the river, bordered as it is by by Hampton Court Grounds on the Middlesex bank.”
