Map of the UK

Heathfield is a residential ward within the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames, situated in south‑west London. It has a suburban, leafy feel with a mix of Victorian and 20th‑century housing, small local parades of shops, pubs and community facilities, and a number of pleasant green spaces that give it a more neighbourhood-oriented character than busier inner‑London districts.

The area has its roots in suburban expansion from the late 19th century and today tends to attract families and professionals drawn by good schools, relatively quiet streets and decent transport links into central London. Locally active residents’ groups and parish‑style community activity are notable, and the ward’s economy is largely driven by small businesses, schools and the service sector rather than heavy industry.
