Perivale

Perivale is a suburban district in west London situated between the River Brent and the Grand Union Canal. The area combines residential neighborhoods with industrial zones that together span the landscape.

Until the early 1900s, the area remained largely agricultural with a tiny population. The construction of Western Avenue and subsequent industrial development transformed the landscape into a modern district.

St Mary's Church hosts chamber music performances managed by local volunteers, drawing music enthusiasts to its historic interior. The venue has become a cultural meeting point where classical music events connect the local community.

Perivale Underground Station on the Central line provides direct connections to central London, making the journey into the city straightforward. The A40 road also passes through, offering convenient access by car for those traveling from surrounding areas.

Perivale Wood, once known as Braddish Wood, ranks among the oldest nature reserves in Britain and is managed by the Selborne Society. This woodland stands as a green refuge that has been preserved through changing times.
