  • Radnor Gardens Management Plan 2020-21: Foreword
    Official January 2020 – December 2021 1 Official Radnor Gardens Management Plan 2020-21: Foreword Radnor Gardens are a vitally important asset for local people and visitors to the borough. The London Borough of Richmond upon Thames (the Council) aspires to maintain and manage the Gardens to the highest standards. This management plan is based on the use of an audit of the park following central government guidance known as PPG 17. This is explained within this document but the approach is based on common sense. We believe that it is important to get the simple things right. Is the green space clean and tidy? Is the grass cut? Are the trees and shrubs well maintained? Is any graffiti removed effectively and quickly? Working with local communities to deliver the highest quality of service is top priority and it is hoped that this document will provide a framework for continuing and improving dialogue. The site will be maintained appropriately and the local community will be consulted on any proposed changes or improvements to facilities or infrastructure. In particular, the borough works closely with the Friends of Radnor Gardens. We actively encourage suggestions about all aspects of the park. While the Council is open to the changing needs of the community with regards to any of the borough’s parks, the Gardens are long established and are well maintained. There have been major renovations over the last few years, these include the installation of a new playground; repairs to the boundary wall; shrub bed replanting; transformation of a parks building into a café kiosk and renovation of the bowling green.

The project is ambitious for a number of reasons – but in terms of this Business Plan, most importantly because it will provide a complete step change in the level of commercial activity onsite. Turnover will increase onsite fourfold to around £1m p.a. as a direct result of the project , and expenditure will increase by around a third. This Business Plan provides a detailed assessment of the forecast operational performance of Marble Hill House and Park under the project.

    Information for candidates We are a team of innovative and highly motivated teachers and staff who constantly strive to provide the finest education and ever expanding opportunities for children; it is this passion which enables us to get the very best out of our students whilst fostering a love of learning through delivery of high quality, exciting and active lessons. The School’s website can be found at www.radnor-twickenham.org THE SCHOOL Location & History Radnor House is located in a historic building on the banks of the River Thames in Twickenham and nestled between Richmond Upon Thames and Kingston Upon Thames. The school affords beautiful views across the Thames, with its playing fields situated a mile down the river at St Mary’s University. Radnor House is well served by both school and public transport. Public bus and train (Twickenham or Strawberry Hill) and tube links are all within easy distance of the school. Cycling is encouraged, with safe and secure bike storage on site. With such excellent transport links, the School is easily accessible to a very large catchment area, under 30 minutes by train from London Waterloo, though most pupils live within the Teddington / Richmond / Kingston area. Radnor House was founded in 2011 by David Paton. The school’s historic building, Pope’s Villa, was purchased with the help of a £9 million investment by Albion Ventures LLP, plus funding from Mr Paton and his wife. Under the Radnor House Group, a second Radnor House School has been established just outside Sevenoaks.
