Street scene by Putney Bridge
Description
View of White Lion Hotel, St Mary's Church and River Thames by Putney Bridge, Putney. In front of the archway on the left are two horse-drawn buses, the rear one with a 'Bank' destination sign on the side. Shops, all shuttered up, include Farmers chemist shop, Scott, and Miller. The next building along is The White Lion public house which is Grade II listed, listing number 1184658. Towards the river is Bridge Wharf which is operated by GF Alchin. On the front fence is a sign for District Line Station over Putney Bridge. On the river there are two Thames Sailing Barges along with some lighters. To the right is Putney Bridge and St Mary's Church which is Grade II* listed, listing number 1065519. The river is in flood and has come over the bank flooding the road. There are is a police officer and a gentleman standing on top of the bridge parapet holding onto the street light. In front of the church gates is a crowd of onlookers. In the middle of the road, a police officer is talking to a man wearing a top hat. Another crowd of onlookers, including a few children, stands in front of the White Lion, some are looking at the camera and one young man is wearing a straw hat. Bridge Wharf has since disappeared; the White Lion and buildings to the left are still standing but have been modernised.
