Lady Eleanor Holles Boat Club is a rowing club on the River Thames, based at the Millennium Boat House, Lower Sunbury Road, Hampton, London.[1] The club belongs to Lady Eleanor Holles School.[2]

History

In 2000 the club's Millennium Boathouse was opened 2 km upstream from Molesey weir, close to the upstream end of Platts Eyot. The land it was built on was originally owned by Thames Water and construction of the boathouse was a joint project with the Hampton School Boat Club and the two schools form the Hampton and the Holles Boat Club Association.[3] In 2000 the boathouse was opened by Sir Steve Redgrave and Ann Redgrave.[4][5]

The club has produced multiple British champions.
