Boat House 170 Metres To South East Of Wittington

The boat house, located 170 meters southeast of Wittington, was built around 1900 by Sir Reginald Blomfield for Hudson Ewbanke Kearley. It is constructed of red brick with a stone band course and chamfered quoins. The building features a moulded wooden eaves cornice with modillions and a pyramid roof made of Westmorland slate, although the wooden finial is missing.

On the southwest side, there is a brick chimney topped with a moulded stone cap and a stone keyblock above an arched recessed panel. The rectangular structure contains two small rooms and a balcony over the boathouse. The northwest side has a gauged head over the doorway leading to the upper part and a boarded window. Steps on the southwest side lead down to the boathouse.

The southeast side, which faces the River Thames, features a gauged brick arch to the boathouse with a keyblock that breaks into the band course. Above the boathouse is a balcony with a rendered parapet. The room that opens onto the balcony has a row of four 3-pane sash windows and a central doorway. Some of the sashes are missing glazing bars, and the doorway has a wooden semi-circular arch with a keyblock and panelled spandrels. Inside this room, there is a small corner fireplace and a moulded cornice, while the rear room contains a kitchen fireplace.
