The boathouse on the Hampton shore opened in 2000 in conjunction with the Hampton School Boat Club and the Lady Eleanor Holles School Boat Club, where notable Olympic rowers were moulded.

I think this cat felt she owned the island, as she strutted her stuff along the shoreline, occasionally turning to check what I was doing. Thankfully, she ‘pawsed’ long enough for me to capture a shot of her stunning blue eyes.

I thought the verticals and horizontals seen here created an interesting image. It offers a view of the bridge from the island side.

Despite being a private island, I was welcomed aboard. But beware: even though you might think this is a pedestrian walkway, narrow vehicles can, and do, cross.

Fancy a night away, or even a few days? This fully restored Thames barge is available to rent with an unobstructed view of the island, bridge and the river

This mainly pedestrian, cast-iron suspension bridge from the Middlesex shore in Hampton is typical of many of the bridges linking islands along this stretch of the Thames.

@photosbyrjt.bsky.socialChiswick Bridge 07/09/2026 #17/#17 - The Jolly Gardeners
On the corner of Ship Lane and Lower Richmond Road, the existing building has stood since 1922. Advertised as a popular traditional pub, it, however, looks rather sad, empty, and, I suspect, disused.

Not quite sure what’s going on here, but this boarded window on the side of one of the Brewery buildings in Ship Lane caught my attention.

If you want to learn how to scull, then head over to the Tideway Scullers School on the northeast side of the bridge. Here, the boats are racked upside down, with the tension on the rudder cables quite relaxed.
