Hounslow Local Information

Hounslow is the principal town of the London Borough of Hounslow in West London. It is a suburban development situated 10.6 miles (17 km) west south-west of the major railway station called Charing Cross.

The origin of where the name “Hounslow” came from is disputed. Some claiming it derives from the Anglo-Saxon “Honeslaw” meaning an “area of land suitable for hunting.” Others claim it comes from a mound or hill associated with Hundi, a pagan Anglo-Saxon.

Built in 1793, permanent barracks for armies that camped on the heath was constructed in Hounslow as part of preparations to meet possible invasion by the French, and by 1884 had its own station. This was eventually demolished and rebuilt a short distance away, and renamed Hounslow West Station in 1925, and the suburb that sprung up in the surrounding area adopted the station’s name. This historic site is well traveled and offers a new fresh experience back into history every time you visit it.
