Description

Strawberry Hill er et velstående område i London Borough of Richmond upon Thames i Twickenham. Det er en forstad udvikling beliggende 10,4 miles vest-sydvest for Charing Cross. Det består af en række boligveje centreret omkring en lille udvikling af butikker og betjent af Strawberry Hill jernbanestation. Områdets ACORN demografiske type er karakteriseret som velhavende fagfolk, større huse og ombyggede lejligheder. St Mary's University, Twickenham, landets ældste romersk-katolske universitet, ligger på Waldegrave Road. Dens sportsanlæg blev brugt som træningssted til OL i 2012.
Den nittende århundrede udvikling er opkaldt efter "Strawberry Hill", den fantasifulde gotiske genoplivningsvilla designet af forfatteren Horace Walpole mellem 1749 og 1776. Det begyndte som et lille hus fra det 17. århundrede "lidt mere end et hus", med kun 5 acres land og endte som et "lille gotisk slot" på 46 acres. Den oprindelige ejer havde kaldt huset "Chopped Straw Hall", men Walpole ønskede, at det skulle kaldes noget mere karakteristisk, og efter at have fundet en gammel lejekontrakt, der beskrev hans land som "Strawberry Hill Shot", tog han dette navn.
