Inside the new boathouse

Jun 14, 2025

A working party visited the interior of the new boathouse on Saturday and took the opportunity to capture a few photographs. The party were returning the newly refurbished changing room benches to temporary storage in the existing, but out of use, club room. They had been collected from the furniture restorers in High Wycombe on the previous Wednesday.

The attached photograph shows a view taken on the first floor looking towards the existing club room. More images may be found in the photo gallery at https://quintinboatclub.org/gallery/index.php?ref=3624.
