Teddington North

Teddington North covers the part of Teddington north of the mainline railway and is made up mainly of residential streets, local shops and everyday services. Terraced houses, 1930s semis and some later apartment blocks sit alongside primary schools, a library and community centres that host regular activities. The high street and small parades provide independent food shops, cafés and trades; local users tend to walk or cycle for short errands. Street patterns reflect late‑19th and early‑20th century development, with pocket gardens and tree‑lined routes adding to the layout.

The river and river management are close at hand: residents are a short walk from Teddington Lock and the half‑tide basin where the tidal Thames gives way to the non‑tidal river. Rail and bus links connect the ward to central parts of the borough and to Kingston and Richmond for wider services and work. Day‑to‑day life in Teddington North centres on local schools, clubs and small retailers, with community noticeboards and parish halls acting as focal points for events and groups.
