EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "View of Old and New Putney Bridges with oast house and All Saints Church in background" transports us back to the year 1885. Taken by an English photographer from the 19th century, this print showcases a picturesque scene that beautifully captures the essence of Wandsworth, London. In the foreground, we are greeted by two bridges - one old and one new - standing side by side over the serene waters below. These architectural marvels not only serve as vital transportation links but also symbolize the passage of time and progress. Behind them, an oast house stands proudly amidst lush greenery. This traditional structure was historically used for drying hops in preparation for brewing beer. Its presence adds a touch of rustic charm to this urban landscape. Dominating the backdrop is All Saints Church, its spire reaching towards the heavens. The church's timeless beauty serves as a reminder of faith and community within this bustling metropolitan borough. Through this photograph, we are transported to a different era where modernity meets tradition seamlessly. It invites us to appreciate both historical landmarks and natural landscapes that have shaped our cities over time. This remarkable image is part of Bridgeman Images' collection held at London Metropolitan Archives – a treasure trove preserving our rich cultural heritage for generations to come.
