River Thames, Narrowboat Moored above Romney Lock
Romney Lock is on the Windsor side of the river next to a boatyard and adjoins Romney Island, a long strip of land in the middle of the river. The first lock was built by the Thames Navigation Commission in 1798. The weir is some distance upstream at the end of Romney Island and runs across the river to Cutlers Ait. The lock was rebuilt in 1869 and, again, in 1979/80.
The brick building is part of a Victorian Waterworks serving Windsor Castle.

The hexagonal water tower at the rear is shown more clearly in Image On the left is Waterworks Cottage. There are plans to install hydro-electric schemes at Romney Lock here but I don't know whether these buildings are in any way involved.

Narrowboat at Romney Lock
It is still relatively unusual to see narrowboats on the Thames, particularly ones that obviously live there. This one is advertising a firm of funeral arrangers.
