Putney

Putney is an affluent area known as the starting point of the annual university Boat Race, when spectators pack its lively riverside pubs. Bars and casual spots for pizza and burgers cluster on and around the busy High Street, while chain fashion stores fill Putney Exchange mall. Putney Heath, a vast plateau of woodland and open glades criss-crossed with paths, is popular for picnics and has a cricket ground.
