Putney is situated in a corner of South West London. In recent years accommodation developments along the riverside have seen the area become more fashionable among affluent young professionals. Although this is not really an area which a tourist on a time-limited stay in London would opt to visit - this is a great little place to explore if you are a resident of London or in nearby Surrey.
Row, Row, Row Your Boat...
Every March the eyes of the nation are drawn to the Putney riverside for the showcase event, The University Boat Race. The competition between Cambridge and Oxford Universities is both a televised and popularly visited occasion. This is a traditional rowing-boat race which has been an annual fixture in the sporting calendar since 1856. The race starts at Putney Bridge and finishes at Chiswick Bridge. Putney taxis service the area during this time and should be available to pre-book, perfect for your visit.
