EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in the late 19th century, showcases the Old Toll House nestled at the northern end of Putney Bridge in London. The picturesque scene transports us back in time to the 1870s, when this historic structure served as a vital gateway across the River Thames. Designed by renowned architect Sir Jacob Acworth and built by local master carpenter Thomas Phillips, the first Putney Bridge was opened on November 29, 1729. Initially located slightly upriver to the north, the bridge was also known as Fulham Bridge and was the only bridge connecting London Bridge and Kingston Bridge at the time. Its unique feature was the tollbooths at either end of the timber-built structure, which allowed for the collection of tolls from those crossing the river. In this photograph, taken in 1878, we can see a wooden barge anchored near the toll house, with the Old Toll House standing proudly on the north bank of the river. The wooden structure, with its oast-like appearance, showcases the intricate carpentry work and attention to detail that went into its construction. The Old Toll House at Putney Bridge is a testament to the rich history and architectural heritage of London during the late 19th century.
