Formerly a parish situated within the historic county of Surrey, Putney is now an affluent residential area governed by the local council of Wandsworth. It is situated south-west of Charing Cross, surrounded by Wimbledon, Barnes and Wandsworth and is regarded as one of the most significant centres for rowing in the country. Also known as a prime shopping district, Putney houses an indoor shopping centre featuring an extensive selection of shops. This leafy suburban district continues to entice families largely due to the great school system in the area as well as plenty of green open spaces and clean air making it a popular spot for runners and cyclists. Putney also features a range of well-preserved Victorian cottages, Edwardian mansions, stylish converted flats and contemporary apartments. The district also boasts a great selection of restaurants, pubs, shops, bars, and cafes among other local amenities along Putney High Street. Putney is just 46 minutes away from the city centre via route A3205 and is serviced by the railway stations of Putney, Barnes and East Putney.
