Victorian and Georgian roofs around Richmond town centre
Richmond's historic centre has a varied mix of Georgian and Victorian buildings, particularly around George Street, The Green and the streets leading towards the Thames. Roof coverings include traditional slate and red tiles, with different roof shapes and details across the area. Older or weathered surfaces may need a gentler cleaning method to avoid unnecessary pressure on the tiles.
