Barnes Bridge presents a fascinating palimpsest of Victorian engineering on the River ThamesnThe site's history began in 1849 with a cast iron bridge designed by the renowned engineer Joseph Locke, constructed to carry the London & South Western Railway's new line through what was then the small village of BarnesnThis original structure necessitated the demolition of Georgian properties on the south bank and the embanking of the river to accommodate its constructionnHowever, the bridge we see today is primarily the product of 1890s foresightnFollowing concerns about the safety of cast iron after a fatal bridge collapse in 1891, a replacement was commissionednDesigned by Edward Andrews, the new bridge of 1895 is a robust structure of wrought iron bowstring girders, built alongside Locke's original span, which was left in situ and still stands, disused, on the upstream sidenThis Grade II listed structure is one of only three in London that combines a railway with a pedestrian footpathnCulturally, it is an indelible landmark of the University Boat Race, where the crew ahead under its arches is traditionally prophesied to win
Barnes Bridge is a lovely starting point to explore Barnes. At low tide, you can walk down to the Thames foreshore and enjoy riverside views. From the bridge, the scenic Thames Path continues along The Terrace, lined with historic houses and cafés. It’s an ideal route toward Barnes High Street, the village pond, and the London Wetland Centre.
Great place to relax and gather your thoughts. Not too quiet, not too busy.
A lovely and understated bridge that’s essential now that Hammersmith bridge is shut for repairs.nnThis is a passenger and rail bridge tho, so no cars. The brick/concrete struts seem quite old but the metal work too seems more modern...not sure it is but it looks that way. Nice little stone seats on each end.nnLittle bit narrow so if it’s busy may be a bit of a squeeze.nnGreat views!
Barnes Bridge, I didn't get any proper good photos off but feels as if you are by the seaside, It is a very hidden lesser known part of London that anyone who loves a bit of peace would enjoy! The Bridge has an amazing view of trains and I found it to be an excellent place to have a walk around.
