Putney is a buzzing residential district situated on the south side of Hammersmith Bridge. The area's Edwardian architecture, proximity to the river, and open green spaces, as well as excellent transport links, have made it a desirable place to live for young professionals working in central London. Accordingly its many bars, diverse restaurants and late night venues are thriving, helped also by the presence of two local universities. Putney is home to the 'Half Moon', a premier London music venue for over 40 years. The local pubs and bars cater to all tastes and price ranges with the less expensive being found closer to the universities. There is also a good choice on offer for those seeking a more family friendly environment. The annual Oxford v Cambridge boat race begins at Putney and on race day the banks of the river and nearby Star & Garter pub are packed with enthusiastic supporters.
