About Kingston upon Thames

A Royal Borough on the river, covered door to door

The Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames is one of only a handful of boroughs in England to hold that title, a nod to the town's role as an early Saxon coronation site — legend holds several Anglo-Saxon kings were crowned here, and the Coronation Stone still stands outside the Guildhall. Today Kingston is a genuinely busy market town: the ancient charter market still trades in the historic Market Place, Kingston University brings a large student population, and the riverside promenade and Bentalls shopping centre anchor the town centre.

Just over the borough line, Hampton Court Palace is a short hop away, and neighbouring Surbiton — with its Art Deco station — is part of the same urban stretch along the Thames. RushXO runs a dedicated Kingston rota; our drivers know the one-way system around the Market Place, the bridge traffic, and the fastest ways onto the A3 and A316.
