How can they block the Thames Path?
Has anyone noticed the Thames Path is blocked overnight and up top 8am by the boat club at Chiswick Bridge?There's an unsigned notice at Ibis Lane which says, "Due to construction works taking place at Quintin Boat Club this footpath will be temporarily closed at various times. We are sorry for the inconvenience. You are able to follow the diversion below to access the path again at Chiswick Bridge."However the gate looks far from a temporary measure, and the matching one by Chiswick Bridge looks very permanent. Can they legitimately block the Thames Path? Why do construction works mean the path has to be closed overnight when there's clearly no work going on... and the site is behind a wall with locked gates in any case. Feels like they just don't want us on their land...
