Southall Gas Works, Industrial heritage site in Southall, United Kingdom.
The Southall Gas Works spans 88 acres along the Paddington Arm of the Grand Union Canal, previously handling gas production for West London communities.
The Brentford Gas Company constructed the facility in 1869 to address increasing gas demands in Middlesex, operating until its closure in 1973.
The gas works facilities appeared in television productions, including Doctor Who episodes where the structures represented a space center fueling area.
Environmental improvement works continue at the site until late 2024, with operations conducted Monday through Friday from 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM.
The site transformation includes plans for 3,750 new homes, 40 acres of public parks, a cinema, shops, and a primary school.
