Wandsworth Tourist Information


Wandsworth is a quiet retreat away from the bustling nearby areas of Clapham, Wimbledon and Putney. As a resident it has everything one needs, including a cinema complex, large open park area, many gyms and sporting facilities like tennis courts, and a number of good quality pubs that offer great food and free wi-fi.

For tourists you can visit the Young Rams brewery and take a tour. If you're lucky you'll see the Clydesdale horses delivering beer locally.

The Wandle river offers local people a chance to fish and for non fishers a chance to relax at the site of a nice little river which cuts right through the area.

Garret Lane, which heads towards Tooting, is home to some good restaurants (towards Earlsfield) and right near Wandsworth Bridge there is a great pub called the Ship, which serves good beer and food, this is a relaxing spot near the Thames.

There's a GAP coming to the Southside shopping centre, already a H&M as well as every mobile company and main fast food joints that kids like. If you want to get away from the crowds and still enjoy city living, you can do this here.

On Saturday mornings the markets near the train station offer some excellent produce, fish and meats. There are some great little restaurants near the station.

It is easy to get to the centre of London from Wandsworth. Come visit us sometime.
