Exploring RICHMOND, North Yorkshire, England

Richmond North Yorkshire, England. A market town at the gateway to the Yorkshire Dales. Famous for it's castle, market square and georgian theatre. We visit Richmond for a virtual walking tour around the town to see what tourist attractions we can see and what Richmond is really like.
Steeped in history and adorned with architectural beauty, Richmond offers a captivating blend of the past and present.
Richmond's Norman Legacy: Founded in the 11th century by the Normans, Richmond's name translates to "Strong Hill," reflecting its strategic location atop a prominent hill. A formidable Norman castle, Richmond Castle, stands as a testament to the town's rich past.
Architectural Gems: Beyond the castle, Richmond boasts a treasure trove of historical structures. The Georgian Theatre Royal, the oldest working theatre in its original form in the UK, and the medieval Easby Abbey ruins speak volumes about the town's architectural heritage.
Market Square Magic: The cobbled market square forms the heart of Richmond, pulsating with life every Saturday. Here, you'll find an array of stalls selling fresh produce, local crafts, and regional specialties, offering a delightful immersion into the town's culture.
Cultural Delights: The Georgian Theatre Royal continues to stage captivating performances, while the Green Howards Regimental Museum delves into the history of the regiment. Foodies can indulge in a diverse culinary scene, with cozy cafes, traditional pubs serving local ales, and inviting restaurants catering to various tastes.
Nestled on the edge of the Yorkshire Dales National Park, Richmond boasts scenic beauty. Explore the surrounding countryside, embark on a refreshing walk along the River Swale, or venture further into the National Park to discover breathtaking landscapes.
Richmond serves as a perfect base for outdoor enthusiasts. Hike or cycle on scenic trails, or try your hand at various activities like horse riding or fishing.
Richmond's unique charm lies in its ability to seamlessly blend its historical richness with the vibrancy of a modern market town. It caters to a diverse range of interests:

I worked in theatre backstage with a guy from Richmond. His father was the custodian of the castle and he started his career at the Georgian Theatre.

I enjoyed the walk around Richmond. I was hoping you would go on the castle turrets. There's a wonderful view from the top. And a lovely walk down to the river. I'm within an hours drive from all your yorkshire walks. Bring it on. Many thanks.

[@GimbalWalkTV]

Would have loved to do the castle but was closed sadly I did film it before though on a very wintry day - it’s on my channel and well worth a watch as there’s some funny moments up there on the castle 🤣

[@GimbalWalkTV]

These are great suggestions - just added them - definitely going to film them - they look perfect Thank you so much!

[@DivaCantor]

I have been to Richmond many times, although not for several years. Did I see that the Yorkshire Trading store is closing? I hope not. Also did not see the Edinburgh Woolen Mill shop- Is that gone also? Have you filmed in Askrigg and Hawes? Both interesting villages, and Askrigg has all the connections with the first "All Creatures Great and Small " TV series. A very lovely village. I lived there for a short time. Please keep filming around Yorkshire- so many interesting places to see

[@GimbalWalkTV]

Thank you - will be doing lots in the coming days/weeks!

[@Adamgreen735]

No...they are both still there open and trading, almost every shop in richmond seems to have the obligatory we are closing down...EVERYTHING MUST GO SIGNS....!!! Always see them every year...yet they always stay open year after year....
