HELP needed with identifying river area and pub.

[Kitscot]

I know I said in my last post that there were no need for any more identifications but I spoke to soon. Again thank you to those who have helped me previously. There are two locations. First two pictures are a river location from the Lewis episode, Point of Vanishing. The second location is a pub from the Lewis episode, The Lions of Nemea. It is on a river as can be seen through the windows. Thank you again.

The river pictures look like the Thames at Oxford by where the Sheepwash channel joins.

The pub scenes look like The Perch?

[mrsmelly]

Could well be The Trout also?

1st picture is on the Grand Union Paddington arm at Hayes, a street called Bankside.

 

Pretty sure the 2nd set is in the coy Carp, river Colne...looked again and no, windows all wrong.

Thank you so much for that identification of Bankside. I also thought the Coy Carp but I don't see those wooden steps in any pictures. Unfortunately I have never visited the pub.

Certainly not the Perch, as that is well set back from the Thames.

I was wondering about the Black Horse at Greenford, but I don't think it is.

Well - Don't stop half way thru the tail.

 

I put him in a basket 

and put him on my bike

we fell off on the road

so we tried it on a trike

Funny story actually. Pike’s previous owner used to smoke a fair bit of weed and when he got a cat he called it Roach. When his mum asked about the name he struggled for a bit before saying “It’s my favourite fish when I go fishing”. When he got another cat his mum said “So what are you going to call him? Pike?”

[Kitscot]

Thank you all for the entertainment. I literally laughed out loud at the fishy puns. Thank you also for your efforts to name the location of the pub. Hopefully, someone will have a light bulb moment.

The fact there arrrr mooring buoys outside makes me think it is on a river. 

 

ETA probably on a weir stream. Somewhere on the Thames me thinks.

The buildings opposite look a bit too well established to disappear that easily.

[Paringa]

Victoria Arms Old Marston maybe.

[Paringa]

Sorry, the river is too close for that...

[Tony Brooks]

How about the Swan at Newbridge. That has jutty out bits of inside seating

[beardshave]

I wondered about the old Maybush at Newbridge though I believe it's closed now
