Info

Comments (2000) The main business revolves around the hire boats and the ferry, which operates mainly between March and November. The ferryman who is employed to operate the ferry service also undertakes work to boats during the periods he is not operating the ferry throughout the day. The Partners are currently seeking to improve the facilities at the site by providing an open slipway. They also have planning permission to develop a small chalet building as the hire <strong>of</strong>fice (which is currently housed in part <strong>of</strong> the workshop) from which drinks and ice creams could also be provided for visitors. Comments (2007) There is no change from the situation in 2000. The ferry is still operated, the moorings full and boat inspections carried out. Only minor repairs are undertaken because neighbour objects to noisy operations. <strong>Assessment</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Boatyard</strong> <strong>Facilities</strong> on the River Thames Adams Hendry Consulting Ltd - April 2007 47

This was due to being surrounded by open space although this acted as a planning constraint as there is no land available for expansion <strong>of</strong> the site. If the business developed and a larger site was required, the business would therefore have to relocate. Relationship to adjoining land uses/other boatyard facilities: Site surrounded by Public Open Space (maintained by LB Richmond) Access arrangements (capacity, proximity to major roads): Direct access onto Hampton Court Road (A308) with a small car parking area. Comments (2007) The main bulk <strong>of</strong> the business is the repair and maintenance <strong>of</strong> craft. The operations at the boatyard have been slightly reduced during the period between the two surveys. The number <strong>of</strong> berths has been reduced down to twelve and the chandlery operation has been closed. <strong>Assessment</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Boatyard</strong> <strong>Facilities</strong> on the River Thames Adams Hendry Consulting Ltd - April 2007
