This beautiful and much-loved stretch of the Twickenham Riverside is used predominantly by the locals. Personally, it is the reason I live where I do. There are not many places so close to central London where one can spot the occasional kingfisher on the daily early morning walk. Why on earth would a busy London tourist want to traipse out to Twickenham to see a modern replica barge? It needs to be put in a place which already attracts the tourists, as an added extra. Hampton Court? Westminster? Greenwich? Twickenham makes absolutely no sense whichever way you look at it.
