Richmond has been named the best place to live in London.

It’s topped the capital section of the annual Sunday Times Best Places to Live guide.

Six other areas in London are included, like Plumstead , Bow and Fulham, with Richmond ultimately commended for its open spaces and community spirit.

The Sunday Times’ expert judges assessed factors from schools to transport, broadband speeds to culture, as well as access to green spaces and the health of the high street.

Tim Palmer, a member of the judging panel, tells Lucy Mayer what makes Richmond so special.

Norwich took the crown for the best place to live in the UK as a whole.
