Richmond Place, now known as Asgill House, is a Grade I listed[1] 18th-century Palladian villa[2] on Old Palace Lane in Richmond, London (historically in Surrey), overlooking the River Thames.

The house is on the former site of the river frontage and later the brewhouse for the medieval and Tudor Richmond Palace.

It is 8 miles (13 km) from Charing Cross and was built in 1757–58 by Sir Robert Taylor as a summer and weekend parkland villa beside the river for the merchant banker Sir Charles Asgill,[2] who was Lord Mayor of London in 1757–58.

[4] It was returned to its original appearance in a restoration of 1969–70 by the then-leaseholder Fred Hauptfuhrer, aided by Donald Insall Associates.
