I didn't know Salters made lifeboats. 

 

The crane is still there in the pub garden.

Folly Bridge. 

And I think the college barge in the image may have survived and be this one

May be another one there were quite a few at one stage not many did survive. 

 

 

 

Looks like a replica but apparently an old one. 

 

"Balliol College Oxford, purchased this barge in 1837 from the City of London Livery Skinners’ Company to use as changing rooms, common room and viewing stand. It is only one of 6 known to still be in existence and was the last barge to be built. "

 

The one in the original picture says City of London on the back which is what took me to this.
