River Thames, Boulter's Lock - Oxford
River Thames Boulter's Lock - Oxford. During Victorian times, Boulter's Lock won fame - and notoriety - across the country as thousands of people flocked to the river here to mess about and watch the wealthier classes indulge themselves. This was especially so on warm summer weekends, and particularly on the Sunday of Ascot Week (horse racing festival), when there were pageants, carnivals and regattas
