More about this scene
Teddington was earlier called Todynton and Tuddington. It is the site of the first lock on the Thames, which has been rebuilt in masonry, with a subsidiary lock for the passage of pleasure boats. The river is at this point scarcely affected by the tides, which are two hours later than at London Bridge, and the low and high water levels are respectively 16½ and 1½ feet higher, the bed of the river rising about one foot per mile. Robert Porter opened his boatyard here in 1891 (right); it became Porter & Brice by 1895, but did not survive beyond 1910. The Anglers Inn with its slipway and landing stairs is to the left of the Albion boathouse. The ferry, although largely superseded by construction of the footbridge in 1889, was operated here until about 1950.
