About

Canbury Gardens ward sits along the northeastern Thames riverfront of Kingston upon Thames. The area is primarily residential, characterised by Victorian and Edwardian terraced houses and modern apartment developments. It is bounded by the river to the north and Richmond Road to the south, with Kingston Railway Station providing key transport links. The ward includes a significant portion of Kingston's town centre retail and business district within its southern section.

The ward's namesake, Canbury Gardens, is a long, narrow public park following the riverbank, featuring a bandstand and tennis courts. The Hogsmill River meets the Thames here at a defined confluence. Historically an industrial area, it was home to the former Kingston Power Station. The area now contains a mix of housing, leisure facilities like the Kingston Rowing Club, and several office buildings overlooking the water.
