Framed Print of Wintry weather on the Thames: the river at Putney, 1881. Creator: Unknown
Wintry weather on the Thames: the river at Putney, 1881. Not for many years past has the southern part of Great Britain felt a wintry storm to be compared in violence and long continuance with that of last week...[The storm] will long be held memorable, attended as it was...with incidental disasters, floods in South London, distressing or troublesome snowdrifts, destruction of piers and wharves, and the wreck of vessels along the shore... All over London, the wind blew a perfect hurricane, and continued, all next day... The scene on the river, for some days past so choked up by ice as to necessitate a partial suspension of navigation, was remarkable... From Westminster Bridge, as far as the tidal action reaches, the Thames has been almost covered with ice, gradually blocking the narrow arches of Vauxhall, Battersea, and Putney bridges, and threatening...to stop the tide way...The morning tide, which, owing to the force of the gale, ran up very swiftly, brought immense masses of the drift ice to bear so strongly on the numerous tiers of coal-laden barges that in some cases they broke from their moorings and drifted up stream; others were swamped and capsized by the accumulation of water forced over them, while many small boats sank'. From "Illustrated London News", 1881. Heritage Images features heritage image collections. © The Print Collector/Heritage Images
