EDITORS COMMENTS
Putney New Bridge, Putney, Greater London (PUTNEY NEW BRIDGE, CC63_00030) - This photograph, taken by Henry Taunt in 1888, showcases Putney New Bridge in all its Victorian glory. Designed by Sir Joseph Bazalgette and completed between 1882 and 1886, this five-span bridge replaced the previous 26-span wooden bridge from 1727-29. The new bridge was an engineering marvel of its time, designed to accommodate both pedestrian and vehicular traffic. The image presents a bustling scene, with people and carriages crossing the bridge, adding to the sense of activity and energy. The Thames River flows calmly beneath, reflecting the bridge's elegant arches and the vibrant colors of the Victorian era. The intricate details of the bridge's structure, from the ornate railings to the meticulously crafted arches, are on full display. The photograph captures the essence of a bygone era, when horse-drawn carriages were a common mode of transportation and the bridge was a vital connection between the north and south banks of the Thames. The bridge's design, with its elegant arches and sturdy construction, has stood the test of time and remains a cherished landmark in Putney and Greater London. Henry Taunt's photograph is a testament to the beauty and ingenuity of Victorian engineering and provides a glimpse into the past, offering us a glimpse into the history of Putney and the Thames River.
