Wandsworth is a busy enough place....and we are puzzled that your Forum is not too active...at present.First of all..we must establish if there is life there...there must be ..because the old 91 bus route used to travel through Brentford and Chiswick to Wandsworth. So we know you exist. Say hello!

Jean:I must call to see my Doctor...I can't stop clicking away!Do you recognise this? It's Wandsworth I believe. A photo taken by a lady called Mrs LHB who has a small album on the internet.

I think this is a park in Putney the only part of Wandsworth I havent lived in. Jean
It's Battersea Park by the embankment with Albert Bridge in the distance. Probably next to the Peace Pagoda.

Hi Jim, I actually am a local as this is where I grew up. The first two years of my life I lived at 20 Prince of Wales Drive just by the entrance to the park. I lived in Battersea for thirty seven years in all, moving to Ealing (Northolt) in 1987.
Francis House ● 7711d
Francis might be local but I am going to disagree with him It is not Battersea Park. I have lived in wandsworth 72 years most of it in Warriner Gardens so I know the park quite well Jean
Jean Gilmore ● 7711d
I remember Warriner Gardens as being by the Labour Exchange.
To me it looks very much like my favourite view along the Thames from near the Peace Pagoda after they reconstructed the embankment.That was at the same time as they built the Thames Barrier as there was fear that the increasingly high tides would lead to flooding, especially at the Spring tide.

I lived at the other end behind Primrose Mansions. I still disagree with you about the walk, the trees are wrong and the bridge is wrong.I think if you do a google search for Putney Bridge you might find this view. Jean
Jean Gilmore ● 7710d
I did the google search and found the picture in Putney images Jean
I've just noticed this evening that the text at the bottom of this website page...now changes to say how many messages have been posted today ...etc.Wandsworth can be declared alive and well...although some will feel it has been invaded by incomers..mainly from north of the Thames!!So 28 messages clocked up so far ..ahead of Brentford and Ealing !!!
