  • Three Men in a Boat’ Experienced Both Magic and Mayhem on Their Epic Journey up the River Thames in a Camping Skiff
    Cruise the River Thames from Oxford to London in a camping skiff How long do I need? Two to seven days Where is it? The River Thames flowing through Oxford, Abingdon, Wallingford, Goring and Streatley, Henley, Windsor and Teddington. Highlights Jerome K Jerome’s ‘Three Men in a Boat’ experienced both magic and mayhem on their epic journey up the River Thames in a camping skiff. The magic is still there, in days on the water and nights spent under the stars. Rowing the river is an intimate affair, bringing close encounters with wildlife, glimpses of private houses and gardens and views of waterside towns and villages that other visitors simply never see. The traditional wooden camping skiff is a companionable craft, with rowing positions for two people and a third working the tiller ropes that steer the boat. You can go with the flow, or row upstream like Jerome’s heroes, and progress is as leisurely as you care to make it. Most people cover from 12 to 20 miles a day but an energetic dash downstream can manage even more than this. No previous experience is needed – getting the hang of it is all part of the fun. Camping is a memorable part of the experience - at night a canvas cover converts the entire craft into a snug tent with room for three people to sleep aboard. If needs be, the cover can also provide protection from the weather during the day. Most people combine nights on board with nights on shore, at welcoming waterside inns or at campsites located beside locks, on islands at the locks or other scenic spots beside the river.

A small Augustinian nunnery founded at the parish church soon after 1100 continued until the Dissolution, and almshouses established in the village and at Goring Heath in the early 18th century remained active as charities in 2017. Following the opening of a toll bridge to Streatley in 1837 (replacing a ferry) and of a station on the Great Western Railway in 1840, the village became a fashionable riverside resort for the middle and upper classes, who built substantial new houses and established social and sporting clubs. The village’s expansion continued throughout the 20th century, when it 1 This account was written in 2017 and revised in 2019.

Goring Heath, by contrast, largely maintained its rural character despite attracting some large houses, and in 1952 was joined with part of Whitchurch to form a separate civil parish.

Edition 2. 1998 WELCOME TO THE RIVER THAMES The Environment Agency acts as the Guardian of the Environment, protecting and improving it for future generations by regulation and direct action. The Agency's Thames Region, which embraces the Navigation and Recreation Service provided by the former National Rivers Authority, encourages the pursuit of a variety of recreational activities along the 136 miles of the freshwater River Thames for which it is the managing authority. It achieves this through the efforts of lock staff and Navigation Inspectors throughout the length of the non-tidal river. The Thames is an attraction for numerous activities: anglers, boating enthusiasts, canoeists, dinghy sailors and yachtsmen, holidaymakers in hired craft, naturalists, oarsmen, swimmers and sub-aqua divers and walkers. With so many interests competing for space, is the river large enough to accommodate them all without conflict and risk to personal safety? The answer is yes - provided that all river users are safety conscious and practise good river manners. One of the Agency's jobs is to ensure everyone has an equal opportunity to enjoy their activity, without impairing the enjoyment of others.
