These photographs form part of the River Thames Image Collection and cover various types of boating on the Thames between Hambleden and Maidenhead.
There is a series of travel images depicting different types of pleasure boats – GRP motor cruisers, narrowboat, a row boat and a classic wooden canal boat – on a particularly rural-looking section of the Thames near Medmenham, with rolling planted fields, round hay bales and lines of trees as a backdrop.
The two photographs of the interior of a rowing boat show seat, track and shoe plates. The crest on crossed oars attached to a railing appears on the Maidenhead Rowing Club boathouse – newly opened in 1998 by Steve Redgrave. The shield features a star and bust of a mermaid.
