London Borough of Brent

The London Borough of Brent stretches across residential neighborhoods, commercial zones, and industrial areas, containing 21 underground stations and the Welsh Harp reservoir.

The district emerged in 1965 through the merger of the Municipal Borough of Wembley and the Municipal Borough of Willesden, transferring from Middlesex to Greater London.

The population includes substantial Asian, African, Caribbean, Irish, and Eastern European communities, with White British residents constituting 18 percent of inhabitants.

The Brent Council operates from the Civic Centre in Wembley Park, managing services across three parliamentary constituencies: Brent North, Brent Central, and Hampstead and Kilburn.

The district contains the Neasden Temple, JFS - the largest Jewish school in Europe, and the Islamia Primary School established by musician Cat Stevens.
