All three seats in the Roehampton & Putney Heath ward were won by Labour where previously they had only held one. Conservative MP for Putney, Justine Greening said:
"Jenny Nickels and Adrian Knowles were incredibly hard working councillors for local people and I’ll continue to do my best on getting the extra jobs, local facilities, better transport and investment that Roehampton needs.”
They also won a seat in Earlsfield, Queenstown Road and two in Bedford ward.
Putney and the SW15 is covered by five local wards in the borough election. There are some parts of SW15 in Southfields ward as well. If you click on the ward name the results from May 2014 will be displayed:
