Every business here has been checked by hand, filed under a real category and pinned to the part of Richmond it actually trades in. Nothing is auto-imported and left unread.

Why this directory exists
A directory is only worth the reading behind it.
Every entry is written up, categorised and placed by hand. If a business has closed, moved or changed hands, we would rather pull the page than leave a wrong address sitting at the top of a search result.
