London Borough of Hounslow

The London Borough of Hounslow extends from Chiswick in the east to Feltham in the west, encompassing residential areas, commercial districts, and parks.

Established in 1965 through the London Government Act, Hounslow merged the Municipal Boroughs of Brentford, Chiswick, Heston, Isleworth, and Feltham Urban District.

The borough maintains several heritage sites including Osterley Park, Syon House, and the London Museum of Water & Steam within its boundaries.

The area connects to central London via multiple Piccadilly Line stations and provides direct access to Heathrow Airport through major transport routes.

Hounslow Heath, a former military training ground and early London airfield, represents one of the largest remaining areas of natural grassland in London.
