Description

Richmond Bridge er en stenbro fra det 18. århundrede, der krydser floden Thames ved Richmond og forbinder de to halvdele af det nuværende London Borough of Richmond upon Thames. Den blev designet af James Paine og Kenton Couse.
Broen, der er en Grade I-listet, blev bygget mellem 1774 og 1777 som en afløser for en færgeoverkørsel, der forbinder Richmonds bymidte på den østlige bred med dets naboområde East Twickenham mod vest. Dens konstruktion blev privat finansieret gennem en tontine-ordning, hvor der blev opkrævet vejafgifter indtil 1859. Fordi floden slynger sig fra sin generelle vest-øst-retning og flyder fra sydøst til nordvest i denne del af London, omtales det, der ellers ville være kendt som nord- og sydbredden, ofte som "Middlesex" og "Surrey" breddene henholdsvis, opkaldt efter de historiske amter, som hver side engang tilhørte.
