Acton
Acton is a district in the London Borough of Ealing in west London. It is 6.1 miles west of Charing Cross. At the 2011 census, Acton had a population of 62,480 - a 10-year increase of 8,791 individuals.
Acton means 'oak farm' or ''farm by oak trees', and comes from old English. It was originally an ancient village, and as London expanded it was absorbed in to the city. Since 1965, Acton has been part of the east of Ealing, but some sections of East Acton are within the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham and a small section of South Acton is in the London Borough of Hounslow. Acton is one of the areas with the most stations bearing their name anywhere within the country, with seven stations including its name.
Central Acton is generally known as the hub of commerce and retail on the former principal road between London and Oxford, called the Uxbridge Road. The main road consists of a great deal of inns, which date back to the late Tudor period as stopping places for travellers. These days, the A40 dual carriageway is the key route from London to Oxford, and it bypasses central Acton. It still passes through East Acton and North Acton.
Acton houses the largest housing estate in West London, named the South Acton estate, with about 2,000 homes and 5,800 residents. The location is currently in phase 2 of a significant 15-year phased regeneration which involves almost complete demolition of the current residential units along with the building of brand new and much more residences. This is likely to increase its population even further.
