The delay in validation was due to additional elevations required. The Boathouse does not presently operate as a boatyard facility. The application for the installation <strong>of</strong> floating pontoons is to provide safe access to the moorings as part <strong>of</strong> the boathouse. The application was withdrawn by the applicant on 12 January 2006 and the application case file closed. No contact has been made with the boathouse despite repeated attempts.

60 Comments (2000) Mr Scott is elderly and is likely to retire in the near future. He still does some minor work but this is fairly limited and derives his income from hiring out his facilities to those wishing to do DIY maintenance to their craft. He intends to sell the site as a going concern. Comments (2007) Mr Scott has sold the boatyard. The site is not currently being operated as a boatyard. A planning application to create pontoon moorings has been withdrawn. <strong>Assessment</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Boatyard</strong> <strong>Facilities</strong> on the River Thames Adams Hendry Consulting Ltd - April 2007
