London Borough of Richmond upon Thames betweenTwickenham ,Teddington andHampton Hill . The name is first mentioned circa 1450 and probably derives from Full or Foul Well.The Royal Mail no longer recognises Fulwell as a place name but it survives as part of some street names and in the names of
Fulwell railway station , [http://www.fulwellgolfclub.co.uk/ Fulwell Golf Course] andFulwell Garage , as well as Fulwell and Hampton Hill ward (though most of Fulwell is in the adjacent ward of West Twickenham).From 1913 to his death in 1932 Fulwell Lodge in Fulwell was the home of the exiled King

Anglican parish church of Fulwell is St Michael and St George which in 2006 had been closed for some time and the parish merged with St Peter and St Paul in Teddington.External links
