Looking across to Taggs Island

This is the view from the Barge Walk, which is the Thames towpath upriver of Hampton Court Bridge. Taggs Island, which is on the left here, is completely surrounded by houseboats. There is even a lake in the centre of the island which has houseboats on it - see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tagg's_Island Ash Island, the end of which is just visible on the right, is largely wooded but is also surrounded for much of the way round by moored boats, except at the north where there is a weir - see also http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/3918693
