The Richmond Apartments

The London Borough of Richmond upon Thames is an Outer London borough formed in 1965 from the merger of three older boroughs. These were the Municipal Borough of Richmond and the Municipal Borough of Barnes, situated south of the Thames which was, until 1965, part of Surrey, and the Municipal Borough of Twickenham on the northern, Middlesex bank of the Thames. In this way it is the only London borough to straddle the River Thames.

Located just 10 miles southwest of central London, Richmond upon Thames is a historic and affluent area known for its stunning riverside views, lush parks, and quaint town center. Whether you're a nature lover, history buff, or just seeking a peaceful escape from the hustle and bustle of the city, there's something for everyone in this idyllic locale.

One of the highlights of Richmond upon Thames is the River Thames itself, which flows through the heart of the area. Take a leisurely stroll along the riverbank and admire the picturesque scenery, or hop on a riverboat cruise for a unique perspective of the area's landmarks and wildlife. You may even catch a glimpse of the resident swans and other waterfowl that call the river home.
