  • Radnor Gardens Management Plan 2020-21: Foreword

    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.

Village Planning Guidance can: about their vision for the future of their area, thinking about: • Help to identify what the ‘local character’ of your area is and • the local character what features need to be retained. • heritage assets • Help protect and enhance the local character of your area, • improvement opportunities for specific sites or areas particularly if it is not a designated ‘Conservation Area’. • other planning policy or general village plan issues • Establish key design principles that new development should respond to. Draft guidance will be developed over the summer based on your views and a formal (statutory) consultation carried out in late The boundary has been based on the Village Plan area to reflect summer/autumn 2016 before adoption later in the year. the views of where people live, as well as practical considerations to support the local interpretation of planning policy.

  • A Geotrail in Richmond Park

    A Geotrail in Richmond Park

    A Geotrail in Richmond Park 1 Richmond Park Geotrail In an urban environment it is often difficult to ‘see’ the geology beneath our feet. This is also true within our open spaces. In Richmond Park there is not much in the way of actual rocks to be seen but it is an interesting area geologically as several different rock types occur there. It is for this reason that the southwest corner has been put forward as a Locally Important Geological Site. We will take clues from the landscape to see what lies beneath. Richmond Park affords fine views to both west and east which will throw a wider perspective on the geology of London. Richmond Park is underlain by London Clay, about 51 million years old. This includes the sandier layers at the top, known as the Claygate beds. The high ground near Kingston Gate includes the Claygate beds but faulting along a line linking Pen Ponds to Ham Gate has allowed erosion on the high ground around Pembroke Lodge. Both high points are capped by the much younger Black Park Gravel, which is only about 400,000 years old, the earliest of the Thames series of terraces formed after the great Anglian glaciation. Younger Thames terrace gravels are also to be found in Richmond Park. Useful maps and guide books The Royal Parks have a printable pdf map of Richmond Park on their website: www.royalparks.org.uk/parks/richmond-park/map-of-richmond-park.

    A Walk Round Teddington 2

    A WALK IN TEDDINGTON: 2 The Grove Estate and Teddington Lock Start and finish at the Ferry Road traffic lights (1). This walk is approx. 2.7 miles in total Ferry Road goes to the river in one direction and to the High Street past the church in the other; Kingston Road goes off towards Kingston, and Manor Road (2) heads to Twickenham. Manor Road was built some time after 1860. Before then, the old road from Kingston to Twickenham made the sharp turn round the church from Kingston Road to Twickenham Road. The church of St Mary with St Alban (3) was the old parish church of St Mary, parts dating from the 16th century. During the incumbency of the Rev Stephen Hales (1709-61) much rebuilding was carried out, the north aisle and the tower being added. The church was continually too small for the increasing population, and in the 19th century more enlargements were carried out until a new church seemed to be the only solution. So the church of St Alban the Martyr (4) was built on the opposite side of the road. The building, which is in the French Gothic style on the scale of a cathedral, was opened in July 1896. When the new church was opened the old one was closed, but not everybody liked the new church and by popular demand St Mary’s was repaired and services were held in both churches until 1972. But by this time the number of worshippers had diminished and running expenses had risen, meaning that two churches could no longer be maintained.
