Parking near Putney Bridge
 
Hi - planning to paddle Thames Tideway and want to put in from Putney
Bridge. Any ideas about legel, safe, convenient parking near the bridge?

Many thanks, Mark

The other day when I saw your message, I composed up a nice message
about how I'd just been paddling in Bath, and explained exactly where
you could park. Then I got confused by the fact that you mentioned the
Tideway. Finally, I realised that you'd said 'Putney' bridge, not
'Pulteney' bridge...

No probs, most people have heard of Pulteney Bridge, starting point of the
annual Oxford v Cambridge boat race, to Mortlake ... ;-)

Someone tried to convince me only a handful of Gurkhas have ever covered
that stretch, only they weren't going backwards and using their legs - they
were paddling kayaks!

Careful on where you leave your car if there is a spring tide the car
park floods.
