Hounslow

The London Borough of Hounslow is a London borough in west London, England, forming a part of Outer London. The borough was created in 1965, under the London Government Act 1963, by the merger of the area of the former Brentford and Chiswick Urban District, Feltham Urban District along with the Heston and Isleworth Urban District of Middlesex. It borders the boroughs of Richmond upon Thames, Hammersmith and Fulham, Ealing and Hillingdon, and also the Surrey borough of Spelthorne. The local authority is Hounslow London Borough Council.

Hounslow grew rapidly in the latter half of the 20th century as a consequence of other travel, a connection to the largest of London's airports since the 1940s, Heathrow Airport which is in the Hounslow post town.

The Great West Road, which crosses the borough from Chiswick to Heathrow, previously served nationally and globally famous manufacturers such as Firestone, Gillette and Coty. As a result, the borough became called the 'Golden Mile'. Some of these factory sites remain, such as Gillette Corner, and the Great West Road is still residence to quite a few prestigious names, supplying them with straightforward non-motorway access between Slough, London Heathrow Airport and Central London. Other notable landmarks include Osterley Park, Gunnersbury Park, Syon House, the London Museum of Water and Steam, and Chiswick House.
