"The core of the book describes, illustrates and maps Thames-side boathouses built from Victorian times to the 21st century and shows international influences on architectural style and decoration and the differing design criteria for domestic, club and commercial use. Also included for comparison are examples from throughout the United Kingdom of boathouses on inland lakes and country estates, showing varying degrees of sophistication from rustic to classical." "This is a valuable source book and a must for anyone interested in the design and construction of waterside storage and living space for club, commercial, domestic or leisure use. The wide range of materials, cladding, roofing, finished and colours illustrated will be useful reference for historical and conservation purposes."--BOOK JACKET.
