Richmond Online covers the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames, which sits on both banks of the river: Twickenham,
Teddington, Whitton, Hampton, Hampton Hill, St Margarets and Strawberry Hill on one side, Richmond, Kew, Mortlake,
Barnes, East Sheen, Ham and Petersham on the other. We report what the borough’s own records show, and we keep the
everyday information you look up again and again in one place.
Start with these
- Richmond house prices: the borough average was £788,872 in May 2026, down 2.5% in a
year, with a ward-by-ward median from 1,737 Land Registry sales that runs from £1,275,000 in Barnes to £499,950 in
Hampton North.
- Trains to London: 22 minutes from Richmond to Waterloo at £4.00 off-peak,
plus the zone, fare and annual Travelcard for every station in the borough.
- Roadworks and travel: the 16 roads being resurfaced between August and November
