Soley devoted to rugby
Twickenham, just over 10 miles from central London, is the largest ground in the world solely devoted to rugby union. It is also the second largest stadium in the United Kingdom and the fifth in Europe! Lovers of rugby will know that the hundred year old venue is host to many national and international cup finals.
The area grew rapidly with the arrival of the railway in the 19th century and many interesting Victorian family homes have been converted into hotels, b&b’s or guest houses all offering good value lodging options.
It is also a popular venue for rock concerts and in recent years famous names such as U2, The Rolling Stones and Lady Gaga have played concerts at the ground. The site was purchased in 1907 for just over £5,000 and construction on the stands started the following year, originally they seated just 20,000 spectators.
The original site had been used for the growing of cabbages so the stadium is still sometimes referred to as the “Cabbage Patch”. During the First World War games stopped and the pitch was used for animal grazing.
Several redevelopments and stand constructions over the years have led to the present layout of the site with its huge capacity of over 80,000 spectators.
What to See and Do in the area of the ground
Visitors choosing to stay for the night near the famous ground will want to pay a visit to the World Rugby Union Museum housed in the Stadium. The museum tells the history of the global game as well as English rugby union. Of course, its situation means that visitors will find a wealth of attractions and things to see and do close by as central London is a short drive or train journey away.
The area itself, also has plenty to offer. The River Thames is near offering plenty of attractive riverside walks, as well as many restaurants and pubs with terraces. Twickenham has two attractive stately homes to visit – both very different in their architecture and use.
Marble Hill House, built in the Palladian style, is set in its own park next to the river in the St Margaret’s area of Twickenham. In contrast Strawberry Hill is a Victorian Gothic building, one of Britain’s most eccentric houses.
Kew Gardens as well as the green spaces of Richmond can be reached in 15 minutes by car. Several options for shops, supermarkets and restaurants can be found within close distance of the stadium. Kingston, Wimbledon, and Richmond where you can visit the Richmond Theatre and the beautiful Richmond Park, are within easy reach.
