Peterhouse Boathouse
Image: © N Chadwick Taken: 27 Oct 2013
The present boathouse is a Building of Local Interest, and was built in 1928 to replace the previous Victorian structure. The building is angled to make full use of the river frontage. The brick ground floor leads to a rendered first floor and a tiled roof. There is one short chimneystack in the half-hipped roof. The gable end of the building has College symbols on the render, including the crest and crossed keys. Beneath this section is a large small-paned casement window and under this are the dates 1828 and 1928. On the small side extension there is the date 1992.
