Skip hire in Hounslow
Hounslow is a town and borough in west London, running from Chiswick and Brentford on the Thames westward to Feltham and the edge of Heathrow, with a borough population of around 290,000. It was formed in 1965 from Brentford and Chiswick, Heston and Isleworth, and Feltham, and the name derives from Hounslow Heath — a vast tract of open ground that was for centuries one of the most notorious places in England for highway robbery, since the main roads west to Bath and Exeter crossed it.
The heath had other uses. It was a military encampment ground from the seventeenth century, and in 1784 General William Roy measured a five-mile baseline across Hounslow Heath as the starting point for the Principal Triangulation of Great Britain — the survey that became the Ordnance Survey. A cannon marks the spot, and the heath is regarded as the birthplace of British mapping. Part of it later became Hounslow Heath Aerodrome, from which the world's first scheduled daily international air service departed for Paris in 1919 — a direct ancestor of Heathrow's role today.
The borough's Thames-side half holds some of west London's finest heritage. Syon House, the London seat of the Dukes of Northumberland, has Robert Adam interiors regarded as among his greatest work and a Capability Brown park; Chiswick House, Lord Burlington's Palladian villa of 1729, was enormously influential on English and American architecture; Osterley Park, another Adam house, and Boston Manor complete a remarkable group. Kew Bridge and the London Museum of Water & Steam sit at Brentford.
Chiswick, at the borough's eastern end, is among the most affluent parts of west London, with its riverside, Bedford Park — the world's first garden suburb, laid out from 1875 — and a well-known high street. Hounslow town centre is a busy commercial hub with a large South Asian population, and Heathrow's presence shapes employment across the west of the borough.
Hounslow is well served by the Piccadilly and District lines, South Western Railway services and the Elizabeth line at Hayes and Heathrow, with the M4, A4 and A316 crossing it. Housing ranges from Georgian and Victorian property in Chiswick and Strand-on-the-Green to Bedford Park's Arts and Crafts houses, extensive interwar semis across Heston, Hanworth and Feltham, post-war estates, and substantial new development at Brentford's riverside and the former Great West Road industrial sites.
