Title
Buildings in Petersham Road
Description
General view of buildings at 81-87 Petersham Road, Richmond upon Thames. Number 81-83 is a two-storey building with timber cladding at first-floor level and a variety of window and door styles to the front elevation. A wooden cross motif can be seen at the base of three doors. This was the former late nineteenth-century, Messum's Boathouse and later headquarters of the Richmond Canoe Club. There is evidence of demolition work where the former boathouse at 79 Petersham Road stood, and a sign saying "KIDD" with a telephone number below. Corrugated-iron panels can be seen in place of the former boathouse entrance. Number 85 is a two-storey building with dormers. Number 87 is The Three Pigeons public house with a sign hanging outside. There is a pedestrian in view and two cars can be seen parked in the pub car park. A bus stop is outside the pub and in the top-left corner of the image is a partial view of another bus stop. This terrace of buildings has since been redeveloped and the pub was demolished in the late-twentieth century following a fire, together with number 85. Number 81-83 retains some of its original frontage with the remaining terrace rebuilt. The site is now residential flats with boatyards to the rear lower-ground-floor levels. The buildings lie within the Richmond Hill Conservation Area.
