Overview
A lost royal palace. A rock revolution. A riot on the village green. Richmond has been drawing improbable people to this leafy corner of London for a thousand years - royals, rebels, writers and rock stars, and one or two you'd never expect.
This two-hour walk with a local guide tells their stories, while giving you the chance to soak up the atmosphere and admire the views that drew them here in the first place.
Highlights include:
- The club that launched the Rolling Stones - while the Beatles watched.
- A royal palace, home to Henry VIII and Elizabeth I, now hidden in plain sight.
- A cricket match that ended in a riot. And a pub that floods.
- The view that inspired Turner, Jagger and the founder of Richmond, Virginia - and the unlikely hero who saved it.
- All the Ted Lasso locations. Including a corner of Amsterdam.
A short train ride from central London. Groups are maximum 10 - small enough to ask every question, go at your own pace, and actually hear the answers.
