really?

There are eight night buses an hour, on four different routes, so
roughly 10 minutes is a reasonable guess.

Wow. And are they well-patronised?

I live within five minutes walk of the N26, N38, N73 and 69, so I think
there are even more than that round my way.

Also, at the very start and end of the night bus shift, the 55 and 48
are also running, making even more at those times.

I don't know how many that makes an hour, but it's plenty.

Three of the four are close to their terminii when they get out here,
but I think the N22 is pretty well used. However, I don't often use any
of them, so am not really in a position to comment.

Eek! That is quite a bit. Damn you with your fancy great park! And what

It's not all his. Richmond Park is also in Kingston and Wandsworth
boroughs (just).

All of Richmond Park is in the London Borough of Richmond -- the park
wall marks the borough boundary for most of the way between
East Sheen Gate and Ham Gate via Robin Hood Gate.

When did that change? My Geographers' London Atlas (sixth edition) shows
the Inner-Outer London boundary along Beverley Brook, with Roehampton Gate
and the golf course in Wandsworth. Also part of the park near Kingston
Gate was in Kingston. www.election-maps.co.uk shows otherwise now.

Changed in 1994 IIRC.
