Whitton is a town in the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames in the south-west of London
Whitton is first mentioned in historical documents around 1200, though it had probably been settled a century or so earlier. As recent as Victorian times Whitton was renowned as a 'market garden', famous for its roses, narcissi, lillies of the valley and for its apple, plum and pear orchards; indeed until the 1920's the village was still separated from the surrounding towns by open fields. Within a decade all had changed and the urbanisation was confirmed by the opening of the railway station in 1930.
Fortunately Whitton remains a friendly village even within its surburban setting. The community is served by a wealth of local shops and businesses.
Whitton is the home of Kneller Hall, the Royal Military School of Music (RMSM). Built in 1709, Kneller Hall was originally the country house of the celebrated court portrait painter Sir Godfrey Kneller.
Whitton is served by a wealth of local shops and businesses.
Whitton is close to Feltham, Hanworth, Hampton, Hounslow, Isleworth, Teddington and Twickenham.
