Richmond Park is a parliamentary constituency in the House of Commons of the United Kingdom. Sarah Olney of the Liberal Democrats won the seat at a by-election in 2016 after Zac Goldsmith of the Conservative Party stood down in protest over expansion of Heathrow Airport. Goldsmith stood as an independent at the by-election, but the Conservative nomination was restored to him for the 2017 general election, at which he regained the seat with a slim majority. Olney won the seat from Goldsmith a second time at the 2019 general election.
The seat was created in 1997 from Richmond and Barnes, held by Jeremy Hanley of the Conservative Party; and a northern section of Kingston upon Thames, held by his party colleague, former Chancellor of the Exchequer Norman Lamont. Hanley was selected as the Conservative candidate at the first election for the seat, but lost to Jenny Tonge of the Liberal Democrats. The Liberal Democrats retained the seat until 2010, when it was won by the Conservative candidate Zac Goldsmith.

Beautiful park. Great for families, walkers or a picnic! Great to see the deer roaming around. And lovely little cafes to take a break.

Lovely park just outside Central London. Different from other royal parks in that it’s very open, but nothing is more peaceful than wandering the wooded areas when it’s not too busy. The Isabella Plantation is a highlight as well.

Really wonderful place to get away from the city. Lots of space though car parking spaces ain’t so easy to find and cyclists think they own the roads.

Beautiful open park, the wild deer are incredible. During miller months, this is an exceptional training ground for cyclists - challenging for all abilities, with generally cycle friendly motorists and roads. Plenty of places to stop and refuel, with good accessibility from most of London.

Amazing to have this open country with wild deer roaming just outside London. Make sure you see the Isabella Plantation in full bloom. Beautiful!

One of the best parks to go to to get away from London and just enjoy being in nature. The deer are always a great sight and are not skittish at all. You can walk or run past them and they are not disturbed, obviously people should just leave them be and not disturb them.

One of my favourite outdoor spaces in London. Great for photos, dropping LSD, hanging out with friends, experiencing nature. Best park in London I would argue for sure.

What a stunning place this is! If you love nature, like walking and getting lost in lots of it, this is the place. It's a massive park with a variety of landscapes, trails, paths, ponds and lakes and encountering the famous deer is a priceless experience, especially the older stags with large antlers!

My favourite park in London. I love hiking with my camera and Richmond Park has always something new to show me. I love it in every season, my favourite hike was on a sunny and freezing January day. Love that you can make your way close to the deer. Isabella plantation also is a must-see.

Wonderful park. Fabulous ancient trees. Loads of deer of various kinds. Hard to believe that there's such a large open park so close to London. Oh, and keep an eye out for the wild parakeets!
