Shouldn't be that difficult. Agreed, I wonder why they haven't? It's not that easy. I don't think there's a suitable pier or landing stage on the Richmond/Barnes side ("Surrey bank"). Whatever you build has to cope with the tides which vary the water level by up to 6 metres.Â* In fact the predicted spring tide tomorrow afternoon happens to be exactly 6 metres above the morning low tide at Hammersmith. How much would a temporary pontoon cost? Should be relatively easy for the school to arrange. After all there's a load on unwanted pontoons at Southampton right now! -- Graeme Wall This account not read. |
