Swan Island, River island in Twickenham, England

Swan Island stands as a private mooring destination in the Thames, connected to the Twickenham bank through a small bridge for vehicles and pedestrians.

Originally measuring 0.10 hectares between 1897 and 1898, Swan Island began as an osier bed according to historical Ordnance Survey documentation.

The island maintains a commercial boatyard alongside residential moorings, forming part of Richmond upon Thames' maritime environment on the River Thames.

Located between Trowlock Island and Eel Pie Island, Swan Island sits approximately 1.2 kilometers north of Teddington Lock on the Tideway section.

The Port of London Authority manages this private mooring destination, which includes facilities for both commercial vessels and residential boat accommodations.
