MenuHanwell, Middlesex
Hanwell is a town in Middlesex. The earliest surviving reference is from 959 as 'Hanewelle'. St Mary's Church was established in the 10th century. The area around the London-Oxford Road (now Uxbridge Road) developed after the road was turnpiked in 1714, with several coaching inns from this period surviving. The population grew further after the opening of Hanwell railway station in 1838 and, especially, after the introduction of trams along the Uxbridge Road from 1901. The present St Mary's Church (1841) was designed by George Gilbert Scott in the Gothic Revival style. St Thomas's Church (1934) has been described by English Heritage as Edward Maufe's finest "church". The town is within the council area of Ealing.
