This print from 1877 shows ‘The Boating Season on the Thames – Opening the Lock’. It was published in ‘The Graphic’ and shows boats of all sizes spilling out of the lock. The #Thames and its locks are much calmer at the moment. If you can, take your hour of exercise along @thamespathnt and appreciate the stillness. https://collection.rrm.co.uk/objects/10517#allinthesameboat #museumathome #ThamesPath
