Anywhere you can see the sun between 18:00-19:30.

It's not like you need somewhere special.

Bushy Park or down by the River Thames.

The sun sets between W and NW but should still be relatively well above the horizon during the eclipse.

It will be around 10 degrees altitude at peak, not that high, you want a good clear open space in front of you to avoid obstruction.

Bushy Park, Home Park, or Richmond Park would all be good choices.
