Teddington Lock - No 1 boating enthusiast destination?

[rogerb]

During April we took advantage of those very warm days to visit Henley - out of season it is lovely - with lots of boating activity.

We went on to visit Windsor and Richmond - as an afterthought we decided to visit Teddington Lock - if you have not been there consider moving it to the top of your list of places to go.

 

Mind-blowing - the biggest weir I have ever seen - a lock 650ft long that can take 6 boats plus a tug - immaculately kept with a lock-keeper on site.

 

This has got to be a must do.
