Why it's Wildland

5.0

A busy stretch of Putney’s riverside with shady trees, Thames views and a quieter lawn near the point where Beverley Brook meets the river.

Its strongest feature is the contrast between the well-used Putney Embankment and the quieter lawn by the Beverley Brook’s meeting with the Thames. It is a useful waterside pause rather than a remote or wilderness destination.
