If you are shallow draft and you don't mind climbing up and down a wall you can moor just downstream from the Turks pontoon.
I have tied up here for an hour or two with no problems. I wouldn't attempt an overnight stop though because of the alcohol fuelled mayhem that is Richmond riverside.

They dont mind if you tuck a small cruiser onto the end of the pontoon though but will not slow down if you are in the way 
There is room under Twickenham Bridge , i assume they have the depth for boats waiting to go through Richmond lock and there are also chains there but very muddy . You can tie up to the railings at high tide but you gotta watch your boat at all times .
I may have to get down there with the Hilti to drill a few holes for mooring pins

It wouldn't hurt the businesses of Richmond/Twickers to front for a reasobale all tide mooring pontoon with shore access and some security. I for one would stump up a fiver per 24 hours now and again. And the thrill of boating to a match, no scramble in the traffic queue:-)
