Battersea Bridge London England UK

Battersea Bridge by Geoffrey Sutton

 

Battersea Bridge crosses the River Thames in London England. I took the photo above in 2021. Battersea Bridge opened 21 July 1890.

The first Battersea Bridge was opened in 1771.

Battersea Bridge is located in Battersea, which is in the London Borough of Wandsworth--the area where my father and his family lived during the late 1800s and early 1900s. 

I had take a bus to Battersea Park and walked along the Thames River, past Battersea Bridge to the famous Battersea Power Station--a modern shopping and restaurant area.
