Richmond Hill rises as a modest, residential ridge overlooking the southern approaches to the city. It lies 0.6 miles south-south-east of Norwich (from Norwich: bearing 148°T, OS grid TG 235 077). The streets here hold a quiet, domestic gravity, where brick facades capture the pale, slanted light of a Norfolk afternoon. To the north-west, the incline of St Catherine's Hill offers a vantage point over the urban sprawl, a silent witness to the changing skyline. A short walk away, the remnants of Saint Peter Southgate linger in the grass, grounding the modern neighbourhood in layers of older, flint-knapped memory. The architecture of Richmond Hill reflects the steady expansion of the nineteenth century, balancing the utilitarian needs of its inhabitants with the persistent pull of the nearby river valley. Even amidst the suburban hum, one senses the proximity of the ancient city, where the weight of medieval stone constantly presses against the fringes of the newer homes. This quiet elevation remains a place of transition, where the air feels thinner and clearer than in the bustling streets below.
