History and local information about Kingston upon Thames

Kingston upon Thames is a busy riverside, suburban town on the borders of London and Surrey. The town is situated in the Royal borough of Kingston upon Thames, in London. Originally an ancient market town, it is located 10 miles south west of Charing Cross.

Kingston is rich in history. It was occupied in roman times, Saxon kings were crowned there and the town received its first Royal charter from King John in 1208. You can still see The Lovekyn Chapel, founded in 1309 by Edward Lovekyn, It is the only private chantry chapel in the country to survive the Reformation. Edward IV’s charter gave the town borough status in 1481. Today the town is a bustling retail centre with a small number of commercial offices. There’s a wide selection of bars and restaurants along the banks of the River Thames.

One of the more unusual sights in Kingston is a sculpture called ‘Out of Order’. This sculpture by David Mach shows several disused red telephone boxes that have been tipped up to lean against one another in an arrangement resembling dominoes.

Other things to do in the area include taking a walk across Kingston Bridge to explore Hampton Court Palace. Watching a game of rugby at Kingston rugby club, one of the oldest surviving rugby clubs, originating in 1887 or enjoying an afternoon of rowing on the River Thames.
