Richmond Place, now known as Asgill House, is a Grade I listed}} 18th-century Palladian villa on Old Palace Lane in Richmond, London , overlooking the River Thames. The house is on the former site of the river frontage and later the brewhouse for the medieval and Tudor Richmond Palace. It is 8 miles from Charing Cross and was built in 1757–58 by Sir Robert Taylor as a summer and weekend parkland villa beside the River Thames for Sir Charles Asgill, who was Lord Mayor of London in 1761–62. It has been described as a "among the last villas of importance to be erected on the banks of the Thames".
It was returned to its original appearance in a restoration of 1969–70 by Donald Insall Associates. This included removing the Victorian extensions.
