Richmond's Riverside is set to rock this August Bank Holiday weekend with the return of the hugely popular Richmond Riverside Music Festival 2019 (24 to 25 August).
There was a time when young people in Richmond and Twickenham dressed to impress. They wore hipster trousers and button-down Ben Sherman shirts, Biba dresses and Mary Quant skirts. Hairstyles were by Vidal Sassoon and John Anthony, the hairdresser in Heath Road. Shoes came from Ravel and suits from Italy via the East End of London. The 'faces'rode motor scooters and went to clubs like the Pontiac, Klooks Kleek, the Carousel in Farnborough and the Ricky Tick in Windsor.
Would you like the chance to buy a unique piece of art created by Dame Emma Thompson or Sir Quentin Blake for just £40?
