About

Kingston Riverside stretches along the Thames Path, offering a broad, open promenade for walking and cycling. The area is dominated by the modern architecture of the Guildhall and the sharp lines of the Bentall Centre, contrasting with the constant flow of river traffic. Public art installations and information boards detailing local history are positioned along the waterfront. It is a functional space with benches, outdoor gym equipment, and several cafes with terraces overlooking the water.

The area directly connects to Kingston's historic market place via the Clattern Bridge, one of the oldest road bridges in England. During summer, the landing stages are busy with passenger boats departing for Hampton Court and Richmond. The stretch near the town centre is often lined with moored leisure cruisers, while the path extends past Canbury Gardens towards Teddington Lock. This creates a clear link between the commercial heart of the town and the quieter, more residential stretches of the riverbank.
