Old Palace Lane

It takes its name from the historic Richmond Palace, constructed during the reign of Henry VII and demolished during the 1650s.

The Palladian villa Asgill House was built in the 1760s at the river end of the street.

[1] In the 1840s the viaduct approach to the new Richmond Railway Bridge was built just to the north of the Lane.

Beyond it is Old Deer Park and the A316 road approach to Twickenham Bridge.

[6] It contains the only main surviving structure from the former palace, its Tudor gatehouse, which is at the entrance with the Green.
