Parks & Nature
Nearby green area that's so forgotten about (compared to the hoards in Hyde Park, Regent Park, even Clapham Common) and is super nearby. Great to soak up the sun, have a picnic, a morning stroll, short run or place to take a book.

CAMRA pub with history and none of the modern gastroness if you fancy stretching your legs through Wandsworth Park and just over the High St for a real ale in Putney old-school. Arrive with cash. And an appetite for drinks only, there's nothing beyond crisps (and that's if you're lucky!)
