Info
Hampton Wick, formerly a village, is a Thames-side area of the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames, which is contiguous with two other districts, Teddington and Kingston upon Thames. It is buffered by Bushy Park, one of the Royal Parks of London from Hampton and Hampton Hill.Economically much involved in market gardens until well into the twentieth century, with its motor and rail connections to London and such business areas as the M4 corridor its population is a mixture of commuters well within the London commuter belt. Its developed area is confined by Bushy Park and Hampton Court Park to its west and the River Thames to its east.
Although north of the River Thames and formerly in the county of Middlesex, the area forms part of the Kingston upon Thames and East Molesey post towns based on the south side of the river.
