Title
Shops and buildings in The Quadrant
Description
General view of shops and a public house at 29-36, The Quadrant, Richmond upon Thames. The South Western Hotel at number 29, with its elongated shape, commands a prominent corner position at its junction with Drummond Place. Built in 1888 as a replacement for the original Railway Hotel which had been erected on the site in 1855, the four-storey building has a four-window range facing The Quadrant. With a single octagonal-shaped room at roof level with three bull's-eye windows visible at its highest point. There is a panel on the front elevation saying "RAILWAY HOTEL 1888". Beneath is a hanging sign with an image of a nineteenth-century steam locomotive. Numbers 30-36 comprise a range of three-storey, mid nineteenth-century buildings with shops on the ground floor, including an off-licence and a stationers. There is a large pile of black sacks in front of number 30. Sections of pedestrian guardrail can be seen on both sides of the road with a central dividing island and a pair of illuminated bollards in view. The Railway Hotel has since been renamed The Railway Tavern. These buildings lie within the Central Richmond Conservation Area.
