Ace Henley Playing Cards

River & Rowing Museum

This wonderful museum celebrates the history of rowing and life on the River Thames.

On the playing card, the eagle-eyed of you will spot Mr Toad rowing the boat and this is no accident for it is he who is the official mascot of the River & Rowing Museum. There's a splendid exhibition dedicated to Wind in the Willows too.

It's a great place for children of all ages and is located at the far end of Mill Meadows with a café that's perfect for a pitstop.

The late Queen Elizabeth II was back 12 years later after officially opening Regatta HQ to open the museum in 1998.

There's always new exhibitions popping up on a temporary basis too so keep an eye on their website.
