Leading to the Thames, inside the Royal district of Kingston in Greater London, England, is the area of Coombe. It is located in the eastern part of the central city and previously belonged to the Metropolitan area of Malden and Coombe before the local authority re-alignment in 1965. The Coombe house, which has since been brought down, was its central point. Along its boundaries are Richmond Park to the north, Wimbledon Common to the east as well as four other districts which border Kingston known as Merton, Sutton, Wandsworth and Richmond.
Kingston Upon Thames
This vibrant neighbourhood boasts of impressive social institutions and shopping, second only to central London, located 12 miles away. This tiny London district is only slightly bigger than the city of London and was in the past a revered marketplace where Saxon royalty was crowned, making it one of the four royal districts in England and Wales.
Socialising
The area abounds with holiday resources, hotels and fast food places making it the ultimate place for many people. The three mile charming stretch along the River Thames heading to Hampton Court and Richmond, is ideal for hiking, biking, jogging, as well as loosening up over the weekend, at the riverbank bars and hotels.
Coombe Warren Woods
These feral woods on Coombe hill were favourite spots for tracking and public meetings. "The Coombe Wood Highwayman", Jerry Abershaw, spent plenty of time at the "Bald Face Stag" bar, while living in the forest. The semaphore station was opened in Warren by the army in 1822 and formed part of the line from London to Portsmouth. It has since ceased to exist with only the Telegraph Cottage still standing. It is presently the Coombe Hill estate and Coombe Wood Golf course made up of perfect roads and alleys such as Coombe Hill Road, Greenwood Park and Devey Close. This prominent estate is highly priced, with homes being sold for millions.
Hogsmill Vale
The Hogsmill River makes it way along its gorge via a combination of city countrysides, open meadows and green pathways, en-route to Thames in Kingston. It passes Clattern Bridge, one of the most ancient in the south of England, located by Kingston's High Street.
Canbury Gardens Area
Tucked in between the Thames and the Lower Ham Road, is this large, open, green Canbury Gardens, a walking distance from Kingston city centre. It is a prime spot for picnics in the beautiful gardens or fishing along the open riverbank path.
Richmond Park
The biggest Imperial park in London is Richmond Park, which is also the second biggest city barricaded park, supposed to be thrice as big as New York's Central park. It was enclosed in 1937 by order from Charles I who allowed only persons on foot access. Kingston Gate is the most direct way in, within the municipality border. It is home to several wild animals including 600 deer.
Bushy Park Area
Located north of Hampton Court Palace is this beautiful and extraordinary roadside park.
