Barnes
Barnes is a district in the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames. It's inside the north east of the borough and is positioned 5.8 miles west south west of Charing Cross.
Barnes has a great deal of 18th and 1800s buildings in the streets close to Barnes Pond, which make up Barnes Village conservation area exactly where a lot of the mid-19th century buildings are found. Around the east riverside, there is the WWT London Wetland Centre which adjoins many fields for 3 primary national team sports.
The town had been a part of Surrey, and it appears in the Domesday book as ‘Berne’. Barnes’ village church was constructed in between 1100 and 1150 and named the Chapel of St Mary’s. It was extended in the early thirteenth century, and was added to again in 1786. A large fire destroyed components of the extensions to the chapel in 1978, so restoration work was carried out in 1984.
Barnes includes a large amount of sporting history spanning decades. In football, a High Master of St Paul’s School, Richard Mulcaster, is recognised with turning mob football into a refereed team sport. The school sits on Lonsdale Road, but in the time of Mulcaster it was located in St Paul’s Cathedral. The town has a non-league football team called Stonewall FC, who play at Barn Elms Playing Fields.
Barnes Rugby Club is assumed to be the oldest club in the world in any football code. They play next to the WWT London Wetlands Centre. The town is also recognised for rowing; the loop of the Thames surrounding Barnes is a part of the Championship Course used for the Oxford and Cambridge Boat Race.
