Chiswick House and Gardens
Chiswick House is a Palladian villa in Chiswick, in the west of London, England. A "glorious" example of Neo-Palladian architecture in London, the house was built and designed by Richard Boyle, 3rd Earl of Burlington (1694-1753), and completed in 1729. The house and gardens occupy 26.33 hectares (65.1 acres); the gardens were created mainly by architect and landscape designer William Kent.
The garden is one of the earliest examples of the English landscape garden.

It is a conservation area, with many "imposing" listed buildings beside the river Thames; a local landmark, the Kew Railway Bridge that crosses the river Thames and the Strand, is itself Grade II listed. Oliver's Island is just offshore.

Kew Bridge
Kew Bridge is a wide-span bridge over the Tideway (upper estuary of the Thames) linking the London Boroughs of Richmond upon Thames and Hounslow. The present bridge (the third on the site), which was opened in 1903 as King Edward VII Bridge by King Edward VII and Queen Alexandra, was designed by John Wolfe-Barry and Cuthbert A Brereton.
Historic England listed it at Grade II in 1983.
