Thames Rowing Club

Funerals and life celebrations can be challenging to organise and usually have to be planned at short notice. At Thames Rowing Club, our Events team are sympathetic, responsive and on hand to discuss your requirements for such a tribute.

Located on the Embankment at Putney, the Victorian clubhouse offers unparalleled views upstream towards Hammersmith and downstream to Putney Bridge, the historic start of the Boat Race. The walls are adorned with portraits, Henley medals and memorabilia of triumphs present and past giving the club a very pleasant and elegant atmosphere.

The entertaining space is very versatile with three distinct areas and provides a warm, intimate and yet spacious environment for your remembrance. The club has recently added a new entrance, with a disabled lift leading directly into the function hallway. The Great Hall and the Bar have floor to ceiling bi-fold glass doors and full height bi-fold windows which open directly onto our large private open air balcony overlooking the Thames.

The Fairbairn Room is an intimate, quiet space adjacent to the Great Hall and off the Bar area, with its own wonderful view of the Thames and lends itself to smaller events.

We have a large portable LCD screen and a PA system which would allow you to play a memorial film or presentation should you wish.

The Great Hall – 150 people seated, 350 standing
