Nice place to visit and learn some of the local history and as many other London museums free of charge. There is a children play area as well.

A very small museum. We walked around in half an hour. Free museum. Lovely artefacts and information. I was expecting it to be a little bit bigger. Very welcoming staff. We managed to get parked up practically outside (PS7.50 for 2 hours). I was a bit optimistic with paying for two hours parking. There is a study area and library. Clean toilets. Lots of boutiques, Hairdressers, shops etc.

A small museum tucked away on the second floor of the Old Town Hall and above the reference library. It had a selection of artefacts from Richmond's history, including from the royal place that was once located here. It also has a small shop.

Floors were a bit dirty, but staff were great, although the museum was small, I still had a great experience.
