The Chatham

No Swan So Fine: Creation.


'''The Chatham''' popularly known as '''"Rosie's Bar"''' or just '''"Rosie's"''' was a [[bar]] on the Avenue d'Ostende in Monaco's [[Monte-Carlo]] district run by Rosie Bernard. The bar closed due to redevelopment in 1996. The location of the bar had previously been moved by 100 meters as a result of redevelopment in 1969.<ref name=Teleg06></ref><ref name=Guard99>Liquid error: wrong number of arguments (1 for 2)</ref> Rosie to run a souvenir boutique on the Rue Comte Félix Gastaldi in [[Monaco Ville]].<ref name=Teleg06/><ref></ref>

The bar was located near the Beau Rivage corner on the [[Circuit de Monaco]].<ref name="Jackson2012"></ref><ref name="Media2014"></ref>

The bar was decorated with photographs, newspaper clippings, and memorabilia associated with motor racing.<ref name="Jackson2012"/> Bernard's memoirs of the bar, ''Rosie's Memories'', were published in 2007.<ref></ref>

The bar was popular with motor racing personalities and hydrographers. In his autobiography, ''Graham'', [[Graham Hill]] wrote that he always called at Rosie's for "a quick beer" before leaving Monaco after a race weekend.<ref></ref>

In 1994 the Canadian hydrographers Rob Hare and Peter Kielland were in Monaco for the International Hydrographic Organisation; the pair went to the bar to check that [[graffiti]] left by Canadian hydrographers was still there. ''Lighthouse'', the journal of the Canadian Hydrographers' Association described Rosie's bar as a "real hydrographers bar".<ref></ref>
