Richmond Ice Rink was an ice skating rink at Clevedon Road,[1] Twickenham, formerly in Middlesex and now in the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames. When it opened, in 1928, it had the longest ice surface in any indoor rink in the world[1] and it soon became the premier rink in London.[2][3] The rink closed in 1992 and the building was demolished.
