About this Event
Come and discover how the beautiful Category B-listed timber-framed West Boat House building was carefully repaired and thoughtfully restored. Built in 1905 to house two rowing clubs, Clydesdale ARC and Clyde ARC. The building suffered significant decay over the years leading to a major renovation program which started in 2019, reopening in March 2023.
