Photograph of Saltaire boathouse in early 1900s showing steamboat on the river Aire. A large number of people are visible watching the steamboat from both banks of the river.
The original boathouse was built in 1871. It was eventually converted to a pub.
By the turn of the twenty first century the building was derelict. It was taken over, renovated and reopened as the Boathouse Inn.
Unlike many buildings in Saltaire, the boathouse is unlisted due to extensive refurbishment and changes to the structure of the building. Nevertheless, it remains an important location in the village for recreation and tourism.
