Wandsworth Bridge Road dates from the construction of the bridge in 1873.

The first Wandsworth Bridge was a toll bridge built by Julian Tolmé in 1873. It was built in expectation that the terminus of the Hammersmith and City Railway would be built on the north bank, leading to an increase in the number of people wishing to cross the Thames at this point.

The terminus was not built and Wandsworth Bridge was commercially unsuccessful. In 1880 it was taken into public ownership and made toll-free.

In 1926 a Royal Commission recommended its replacement. The present bridge, designed by Sir Thomas Peirson Frank, was opened in 1940.
