It reopened from 22nd July 2019 after a few years' closure, caused by a need to extensively pile and completely rebuild the Thamesside frontage and terrace to the building. With the bar in approx. the same position as before, it has a much more open aspect, extending further alongside the riverside frontage, than before. The result has created greatly improved interior spaces and a longer terrace for drinking and eating (al fresco when the latter is sun-drenched), to enjoy the constantly varying riverside vista in a classic Berkshire village.
