The River & Rowing Museum celebrates the traditions and environment of the River Thames, the excitement and thrills of the sport of Rowing and the historic riverside community of Henley-on-Thames.
Spacious and state-of-the-art, the specially commissioned
building
was designed by the award winning British architect,
David Chipperfield.
The museum is already an
architectural landmark and complements
the picturesque water meadow on which it stands and the vista
of the
river it surveys.
This website is organized hierarchically.
The
first level is designed to present the museum in different
ways for different categories of user.
At any point in navigating this website you may select the
museum logo/name at the top of the webpage. This will take you one
level up the hierarchy (unless you are already at the museum's
home page. The hierarchy is normally a maximum of
two levels (occasionally three levels) deep so a maximum of
two (occasionally three) hyperlink traversals is required to
return to the museum homepage from any given webpage on this website.
The title of each page
(normally displayed at the top of your browser)
uses vertical bars before subtitles
to give an indication of the current level.
We hope you enjoy visiting this website.
