We live opposite the park and see many boats moored there all the time for days on end. Nothing 'orrible seems to happen especially if you moor between the lock and the islands it's very peaceful. A five minute walk and you're in Henley town centre!

I heard that you got all the equipment for your posh new boat off boats that moored on the park

Yeah, thanks for the advice. You must stop by for a nice cup of tea when you are next in the area!

sounds like we will be mooring in the park then. Is there mooring on the lock, like there is at some other locks?

A place to see if it's available.

going upstream - just after Henley bridge and then IMMEDIATELY on the right by the Angel is free mooring

*VERY* shallow there I believe. Perhaps Philandemma can confirm or deny this as they are very much the locals there.

The mooring guy for the area Steve's number is 077747 01314.

No moorings available at all on Fawley Meadow that weekend; deadline of even Trad boats has passed (1st June) and "support boats" (can I say tupperware on this forum?) is very restricted & essentially is for boats where owners have trad day boats. Moorings between Hambleden Lock and Temple Island would be available in abundance, no booking up, and as noted above a (20 minute ish?) walk into Henley. Alternatively the Council's moorings at Mill Meadows, above the bridge on the park leading up to Marsh Lock are a much shorter walk.

regards

IanC

The Angel mooring IS very shallow and more than likely taken anyway as it is a busy month in Henley. There are no moorings actually at Marsh Lock but all along the park (on the left going down stream!) Steve does not control the moorings on the park it is the Council. I believe it is £6.50 per 24 hours.
