Captured by the talented photographer William O Field, this image showcases The Cedars, an exquisite Victorian terrace located on Ranelagh Road in Putney. Intriguingly, what immediately catches our attention is the fallen tree that lies majestically in front of The Cedars. Its presence adds a touch of mystery and intrigue to this otherwise idyllic scene. It serves as a poignant reminder of the power of nature and how it can shape our surroundings. Dating back to the 1880s, this photograph offers us a glimpse into history – a time when people posed for pictures with stoic elegance amidst stormy weather conditions. The decay and damage evident on some parts of The Cedars hint at its rich past and stories yet untold.
