This new boathouse on the banks of the River Thames replaces the listed boathouse that was destroyed by fire.

The modern design features a slender aerofoil shaped bronze clad roof that cantilevers 8m over the first floor viewing terraces. The addition of first floor student accommodation provides mixed use.

The ground floor boat stores are raised above the 1:100 year flood level, and flood compensation was provided to maintain water volumes on the Thames flood plain.

  • Status Complete
  • Date 2007
  • Cost £1.5M
