Demolition of the Boathouse

Sep 2, 2024

Demolition of our 100-year-old boathouse started in earnest during the week commencing Monday, 5th August, once the asbestos tiles had been removed from the roof. By Wednesday, 14th August half the boathouse, changing rooms and flat had disappeared. By Sunday, 25th August there was not much more to be done and by Monday, 2nd September demolition was complete.
