Fulham Railway Bridge crosses the River Thames in London. It is very close to Putney Bridge, and carries the London Underground District line between Putney Bridge station on the North, and East Putney station on the South. Fulham Railway Bridge can also be crossed on foot, on the downstream (east) side.
Originally referred to by its design engineers W. H. Thomas and William Jacomb as Putney Railway Bridge (which it is still sometimes called) it has no official name but for over a hundred years it has been known colloquially as "The Iron Bridge".
Opened in 1889 and 229 metres long. It carries District Line tube trains from Wimbledon to Earls Court and beyond. There is a footpath on the east side so it can be crossed on foot.
Built in 1887-9 for the London and South Western Railway with five spans of lattice-girder construction. It was built by William Jacomb, Brunel's assistant on the ship, the Great Eastern.
