<strong>Boatyard</strong> Record Sheet <strong>Boatyard</strong> number: 15 Premises Trading Name: Unknown Telephone no: Address: Phoenix <strong>Boatyard</strong> Eel Pie Island Twickenham Middx Postcode: TW1 3DY Operator: Tenant: Freeholder: Borough: Richmond upon Thames <strong>Facilities</strong> Open slipway: No Land storage: No Covered slipway: Yes Pontoon moorings: No Dry dock: No Buoy/bankside moorings: No Boat Hoist/Crane: No Covered workshop: Yes Chandlery: No Max dimension <strong>of</strong> craft that can be slipped / dry docked / lifted / moored Length: 12.5 metres Beam: Tonnage: Employee numbers None Context At the time <strong>of</strong> the 2000 <strong>Boatyard</strong> Study this site was disused. The boatyard building had been severely damaged by fire but the slipway underneath was undamaged. Henry Harrison submitted a planning application to retain the covered slipway and to construct business units and a manager’s flat within the site that is located between Eel Pie Slipways and Eel Pie <strong>Boatyard</strong>. LB Richmond was concerned about the practicality <strong>of</strong> the arrangements to maintain boat repair facilities on the site and commissioned Adams Hendry to review the planning application. Adams Hendry advises modifications to ensure that the full length <strong>of</strong> the slipway was made available for use and that the headroom <strong>of</strong> the building be increased to a minimum <strong>of</strong> 6 metres. The Platonic Partnership submitted a fresh planning application for Henry Harrison on 28th July 2000 for the erection <strong>of</strong> a two storey block <strong>of</strong> B1 workshop studios and B2 boatyard with manager’s flat above (Ref 00/2086/FUL). L B Richmond approved this application but later took enforcement action because the developer had inserted a beam across the slipway that reduced the effective length <strong>of</strong> the operational slipway. <strong>Assessment</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Boatyard</strong> <strong>Facilities</strong> on the River Thames Adams Hendry Consulting Ltd - April 2007 63
64 The developer appealed and a hearing was held (APPEAL REFERENCE – APP/L5810/A/04/1138182). The inspector found that no breach <strong>of</strong> planning control had occurred because the original consent was not conditioned to prevent the insertion <strong>of</strong> structure within the covered slipway and such structures would not normally be subject to planning control. Comment (2007) It is understood that there is some boatyard use <strong>of</strong> the slipway for small craft so this represents a small net gain as compared to the situation in 2000. <strong>Assessment</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Boatyard</strong> <strong>Facilities</strong> on the River Thames Adams Hendry Consulting Ltd - April 2007
