Eel Pie Island Bridge
A Memory of Twickenham.
The footbridge over to Eel Pie Island did not open until 9th February 1957, when folk were invited to a "Grand Gala Opening Night - A Three Band Session" at Eel Pie Island Jazz Club. They were treated to Cy Laurie, Bill Brunskill's Jazzmen and The Alpha Jazzmen
Many thanks for the information - we will update our database to read c1960. Ed.

Acker Bilk Ken Colyer Terry Lightfoot Ken Sims and many more of the same.
What happy memories.
I jumped off the bridge for a 10/- bet, I enjoyed it so much I did it again for nothing.
What wasn’t enjoyable was travelling back to Sydenham soaking wet.
