Welcome to Putney Heath

Putney Heath is a large open space located in the southwest of London. It is a popular destination for locals and tourists alike, offering a peaceful retreat from the hustle and bustle of the city. The heath is home to a variety of wildlife, including rabbits, foxes, and birds, making it a great spot for nature lovers. Visitors can enjoy a leisurely stroll or a picnic on the grassy fields, or take part in one of the many outdoor activities available, such as cycling, running, or horse riding. The heath is also steeped in history, with several monuments and memorials dotted throughout the area, including the famous Windmill, which dates back to the 18th century.

One of the most striking features of Putney Heath is its vast expanse of greenery. The heath covers over 400 acres of land, making it one of the largest open spaces in London. The area is made up of a mixture of woodland, grassland, and heathland, providing a diverse range of habitats for wildlife. The heath is also home to several ponds and streams, which add to its natural beauty. Visitors can take a stroll along the many footpaths that crisscross the heath, or simply sit and enjoy the peaceful surroundings.

Putney Heath is not just a place of natural beauty, but also a hub of activity. The heath is home to several sports clubs, including cricket, rugby, and football teams, as well as a golf course. The heath is also a popular spot for kite flying, with enthusiasts flocking to the area on windy days. In addition, the heath hosts several events throughout the year, including the annual Putney Heath fair, which features a range of stalls, rides, and entertainment for all ages. Whether you're looking for a peaceful retreat or an active day out, Putney Heath has something to offer everyone.
