  • Rowers' Guide to the Thames 1 Thames Tour What to See When
    Thames Tour What to see when rowing the Thames Christopher Dodd This guide was written for an International Rowing Federation (FISA) seven-day rowing tour of the Thames in 2003, starting in Godstow near Oxford and progressing downstream to Putney in London. It uses the terms ‘port’ and ‘starboard’ to describe the location of sights. As seen from the cox’s seat, ‘port’ (stroke side) is to the left of boat, ‘starboard’ (bow side) is to the right - in the direction in which the boat and the stream are moving. The River Thames, also called the Isis in the Oxford area, is important for several reasons. For centuries it was a great trading route, connecting the Thames Valley and, through the canal system, the west and midlands of England with the great port of London. It is a great source of drinking water for London, and as railways shut down transport by water, they opened the Thames Valley to Londoners for enjoyment and recreation. The modern sport of rowing was born on the Thames, and it remains a world centre. The guide was updated in 2013. Please contribute comments and corrections HERE. © Christopher Dodd Seven days from Oxford to London DAY 1 – Godstow to Clifton Hampden (27 km, 6 locks) DAY 2 - Clifton Hampden to Pangbourne (29 km, 4 locks) DAY 3 - Pangbourne to Henley (24 km, 6 locks) DAY 4 - Henley to Maidenhead (25 km, 6 locks) DAY 5 - Maidenhead to Staines (24 km, 5 locks) DAY 6 - Staines to Teddington (28 km, 6 locks) DAY 7 - Teddington to Putney (15 km) Rowers’ guide to the Thames 1 DAY 1 – Godstow to Clifton Hampden, 27 km, 6 locks The tour starts at St Edward’s school boathouse, close to Godstow lock beside the remains of Godstow Abbey.

  • River Thames
    River Thames The River Thames (pronounced /ˈtɛmz/ ( listen) temz) is a major river flowing through southern England. While it is best known because its lower reaches flow through central London, the river flows alongside several other towns and cities, including Oxford, Reading, Henley-on-Thames, Windsor, Kingston Upon Thames and Richmond. The river gives its name to several geographical and political entities including the Thames Valley, a region of England centred around the river between Oxford and west London, the Thames Gateway, the area centred around the tidal Thames, and the Thames Estuary to the east of London. Summary The Thames is the second longest river in the United Kingdom and the longest river entirely in England. It rises at Thames Head in Gloucestershire, and flows into the North Sea at the Thames Estuary. It has a special significance in flowing through London, the capital of the United Kingdom, although London only includes a short part of its course. The river is tidal in London with a rise and fall of 7 metres (23 ft); tides reaching up to Teddington Lock. The catchment area covers a large part of South Eastern and Western England and the river is fed by over 20 tributaries. The river contains over 80 islands, and having both seawater and freshwater stretches, it supports a variety of wildlife. The river has supported human activity from its source to its mouth for thousands of years providing habitation, water power, food and drink. It has also acted as a major highway through the Port of London for international trade, internally along its length and by its connection to the British canal system.
