Terrace Walk and Field
Nightingale Lane, Richmond, TW10 6UZ Map
The Terrace Field, next to Terrace Gardens, is a steep meadow with delightful views of the river.
About the park
From the gravel walk at the summit of Richmond Hill, many local landmarks can be viewed through a telescope situated near the boundary hedge. On a clear day you can see Windsor Castle, and a viewing panel is also provided showing other key landmarks of interest.
The fields are cut for hay in the late summer to allow the Six Spot Burnet Moth to complete its breeding cycle.
Visiting the park
Terrace Walk & Fields is accessible at all times. Richmond station is nearby, as are bus routes 65 and 371.
