Barnes is a district inside the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames. It’s in the north east of the borough and is positioned 9.3 km west south west of Charing Cross. Barnes has plenty of eighteenth centu and 1800s buildings in the streets near Barnes Pond, which make up Barnes Village conservation area where the majority of the mid-19th century buildings are placed. Around the east riverside, there’s the WWT London Wetland Centre which adjoins a number of fields for three primary national team sports. The town once was part of Surrey, and it appears within 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 13th century, and was added to once again in 1786. A big fire destroyed components of the extensions to the church in 1978, so restoration work was accomplished in 1984. Barnes features a great deal 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 situated in St Paul’s Cathedral. The town has a non-league football team known as Stonewall FC, who play at Barn Elms Playing Fields. Barnes Rugby Club is considered 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 part of the Championship Course employed for the Oxford and Cambridge Boat Race.
