Whitton

Whitton is a largely residential suburb that still hides interesting places to see just a short walk from Whitton station. The majestic Kneller Hall, a Grade II listed mansion which for many years housed the Royal Military School of Music, dominates the local skyline. The area also includes Twickenham Cemetery, quietly tucked along Hospital Bridge Road, where many local stories find their resting place. Nature lovers can explore Crane Park, a beautiful riverside green space tracing the bend of the River Crane with woodland, riverside trails, and pockets of industrial archaeology (including the historic Shot Tower). In the heart of Whitton, the charming St Philip & St James Church, dating from 1862, adds architectural character with its stained glass windows and peaceful churchyard. Together, these offer a mix of heritage, greenery and quiet corners to discover around Whitton.
