Putney Old Bridge, Putney, Greater London: A Glance into the Past This photograph, taken by Henry Taunt in 1875, showcases the picturesque Putney Old Bridge in all its Victorian glory. Situated in the heart of Putney, this historic structure spans the tranquil Thames River, connecting the boroughs of Wandsworth and Richmond-upon-Thames. The bridge, rebuilt in stone in 1884-1886, stands as a testament to the rich history of this area. Its timber predecessors date back to the 18th century, and it was once a notorious site for duels, earning it the nickname "Duelling Bridge." Dueling was a common practice during the 18th and early 19th centuries, and Putney Old Bridge was a popular location due to its secluded location and easy access to the river. The image presents an exterior view of the bridge, looking across the river from Putney. The stone arches of the bridge stand tall against the backdrop of the lush greenery and the serene water. A small boat can be seen anchored in the foreground, adding a sense of tranquility to the scene. The clear waters of the Thames reflect the vibrant colors of the autumn leaves, creating a breathtaking tableau. Henry Taunt's photograph offers a glimpse into the past, allowing us to appreciate the beauty and history of this iconic bridge. The image transports us back in time, inviting us to imagine the stories and events that unfolded on this very spot. Putney Old Bridge remains a cherished piece of London's heritage, a reminder of the city's rich and complex history.
