744A Story of Putney London - How it Was Recorded

posted on February 5th, 2010

Putney is a small part within the Manor of Wimbledon. It lies between the parishes of Wandsworth and Barnes and is surrounded on the North by the Thames. It is part of the hundred of Brixton, which comes in the county of Surrey. The earliest mention of Putney can be seen in the Doomsday Book, where it is referred to as Putenlie.

This Mortlake (Mortelage) fishery was under Earl Harold during King Edwards reign, and of King William; and yet they say that Harold used force to get it up during King Edwards reign in the land of Chingestune (Kingston), and in the land of Saint Paul’s.

The Fishery
Being on the Thames Putney has always seen a good connection with businesses that are linked with this river had a strong relation with businesses associated with the river.As per an age old custom of the Manor of Wimbledon, In the early 1660s a fishery determined the best catch for March, April, & May, but this soon turned into money payment.

As Per Guthrie the fishery continued until 1786, after which it is said to have been abandoned. Lyson tells us that even though no “fishery” stayed in Putney after 1786, fishing was witnessed until the early part of the nineteenth century. Now fishing in Putney is restricted to the recreational fishers

The Putney Ferrying
The Putney Ferry dates back to the 11th century and possibly before. In the records from Edward I (1272-1307) the ferry finds a mention in a couple of instances.

The first is wherein Robert the Ferryman of Putney and other sailors were paid 3/6d in order to carry a great part of the royal family across the Thames and also taking the king and his relatives to Westminster.

Two ferry services ran from Putney, the “long ferry” ran to Westminster and London and the “short ferry” from Putney to Fulham. The former was particularly availed of by foot passengers to steer clear of the poor roads. Horses could, no doubt, be obtained through the various inns in Putney in the vicinity of, nearby the ferry.
