| the first permanent* bridge at Putney was 'Fulham Bridge' (later called Putney Bridge), it was a highly lucrative toll bridge for most of its life. It was built despite the best efforts of the watermen and lightermen who controlled traffic across and along the Thames. *a temporary bridge made of barges was built in Putney during the civil war. It has been suggested that the Romans may have bridged the Thames at Putney, but no evidence has ever been found. |
