Petersham

I thought that I'd found one of the poshest parts of the country here in Richmond, with wealth, luxury and BBC English spoken everywhere I went. I'm speaking about Petersham. This village doesn't appear on maps, and is hidden away. All the houses are huge, and everything is very English, very green and very classic, close to some of those super expensive old schools which prepare their students for entry to Oxford and Cambridge: the German School (formerly the German Grammar School).

From a political point of view, Petersham is part of Richmond, but it seems to receive some special privileges, typical of rural areas (possibly thanks to the taxes of the rich people ve live here).
