These formal gardens are part of the grounds of York House, now municipal offices for Richmond upon Thames. The statues are of nubile water nymphs cavorting with winged horses among rocks, and are entitled 'Cascade, Pool and Oceanides'. (See http://www.twickenham-museum.org.uk/detail.asp?ContentID=11 for more information). As I took the picture, the site was fenced off and careful restoration work was in progress.
