Richmond — La Fédération sur le territoire

Richmond — Richmond Park's thousand acres, the red and fallow deer herds, the view from King Henry's Mound across to St Paul's dome, the river walk from Richmond Bridge to Ham House, and the Petersham Nurseries restaurant — is forty minutes from Mayfair by FFGR driver. The Royal Botanic Gardens at Kew (ten minutes further south) add a botanical dimension to a day in this most aristocratic of London's outer villages — one that has barely changed since the eighteenth century.
