1920s there would be a
women’s club as well.
An Oxford Regatta held
during the First World War
also included swimming. A
Pathé News clip of the period
opens with a row of boys
diving off a long floating raft,
then using an impressively
fluid front crawl. Yet despite
this tradition of river
swimming there is very little
in the way of documentation
in any of the city’s museums
