Located at the foot of the picturesque Blue Mountains, on the alluvial Hawkesbury River flats, Richmond, is one of the Hawkesbury’s five major towns. The British settlers who originally explored the area named it ‘Richmond Hill’ for the terrain. It is a mere 62 kilometres north-west of Sydney and the continuing expansion of Sydney’s suburban area until Richmond has made it more of an outer suburb.
