The first Barnes Bridge C1849
The villages of Chiswick and Mortlake, about 6 miles (9.7 km) west of central London on the north and south banks of the River Thames, had been linked by a ferry since at least the 17th century. Both areas were sparsely populated, so there was little demand for a fixed river crossing at that point.[3]
It was opened on 12 March 1916 on the Surrey side of the River Thames on the embankment leading to Barnes Railway Bridge, whence its name. The station has an ornate entrance facing the river. Stairs lead up to the two platforms, each with a modest shelter. Passenger numbers are swelled on Boat Race days. The old ticket office is now used as a Physio clinic; Physio on the River.
