It is used today mostly for leisure boating.
The winding hole (where boats are turned) lies to the east of and adjacent to the Great Wharf. Odiham Common is on the northern bank.
These boats are moored in a small creek off the wide waters of the broad. The pleasure craft in the foreground has a steering wheel which would not be out of place in a bus or taxi.
Holidaymakers are boating on the southern reaches of Windermere near Newby Bridge.
A sign on one of the boats advertises sea trips, and the 'Frank and Elizabeth, the 'Sunbeam' and another craft seem to be quite busy.
A boat under way gradually builds up speed, whilst a paddle steamer lies off North Pier. The turret of McCaig's folly is clearly visible amongst the trees and surrounding buildings.
The man leaning against the hull of his fishing boat can get to the craft comfortably in waders. Brixham fishing smacks were built in a style peculiar to this port. Paignton
A former stable block for boathorses lies near the moored boats.
Local boats still fish for crab and lobster, though fish for the kipper industry is brought in from North Shields.
Holidaymakers are boating on the southern reaches of Windermere near Newby Bridge.
A view of the Tower from Tower Bridge as a police boat races downstream. Traitor's Gate can be seen in the river wall to the left.
Ahead, boats are setting off from Clare House Pier. There are now fewer trees to the left, where two very sombrely dressed ladies (mother and daughter?) are walking.
Boys stand in their boats and paddle near the rapids, while others fish around on the bank without a concern in the world, as boys have probably done here for centuries.
Pleasure boat trips on the Thames have been popular for many a year.
On 4 June every year a procession of boats takes place to celebrate the birthday of George III, Eton's favourite monarch. Francis Frith's Berkshire
The Union Jack flies and boats are dressed with flags, and three girls watch intently as two yachts turn in the reach. Three ladies in hats and high heels consult papers.
The boats of today would have seemed modest in size moored alongside the men-o'-war of Nelson's navy.
On the left of the picture we can see the boating lake.
The party in the bottom left-hand corner seem to have abandoned their boat for a rest on the bank. This view is upstream of St Catherine's Lock.
Fishing boats squat in the harbour mud. At one time, the waters stretched another half-mile inland, but the land has been filled in and built on.
Although the pub may be gone, the building on the corner of the road has become a chandler's and boat yard for recreational sailors.
The slipway of the ferry crossing is next to a wooden boat-building yard on the Bodinnick side of Fowey harbour.
Well-tended gardens lead down to a private mooring and boat houses. This property has the added attraction of a waterside summer house.
The northern (further) bay penetrates well inland and provided good shelter for boats, with limekilns, storehouses and coal yards nearby.
