More about Ealing
Ealing is a place in the London Borough of Ealing. It
is a suburban development situated 7.7 miles (12.4 km)
west of Charing Cross.
Ealing derives its name from Gillingas, meaning the
people of Gilla, who may have been an Anglo-Saxon
settler. Over the centuries, the name has changed, and
has been known as Yealing, Zelling and Eling, until
Ealing became the standard spelling in the nineteenth
century.
Archaeological evidence shows that some parts of Ealing
have been occupied for at least 7,000 years - iron age
pots have been discovered on Horsenden Hill. The name
Ealing comes from the Saxon place-name Gillingas, and a
settlement is recorded here in the twelfth century, amid
a great forest that carpeted the area to the west of
London.
The earliest surviving English census is that for Ealing
in 1599. The list was a census of all 85 households in
Ealing village giving the names of the inhabitants,
together with their ages, relationships and occupations.
It survives in manuscript form in the Public Record
Office.
Settlements were scattered throughout the Ealing parish.
Many of them were along what we would now call St.
Mary's Road, near to the church, which was in the centre
of the parish. There were also houses at Little Ealing,
Ealing Dean, Haven Green, Drayton Green and Castle Bear
Hill.
The Church of St. Mary's, Ealing, the parish church,
dates back to at least the early twelfth century. The
parish of Ealing was divided into manors, such as those
of Gunnersbury and Pitshanger. These were farmed, the
crops being mostly rye, but also wheat and maslin. There
were also animals, such as cows, sheep and chickens.
The first maps of Ealing were made in the eighteenth
century and give an impression of what the parish looked
like. It was mostly made up of open countryside and
fields, where, as in previous centuries, the main
occupation was farming.
The most important changes to Ealing happened in the
nineteenth century. The building of the Great Western
Railway in the 1830s, part of which passed through the
centre of Ealing led to the opening of a railway station
on Ealing Broadway in 1838. In the next few decades,
there was a large amount of speculative building
throughout Ealing. These were mostly semi-detached
houses, designed for the rising middle class. Better
transport links, including horse buses as well as
trains, meant that people could more easily travel to
work in London but live in what was still considered to
be the countryside. Of course, the countryside was
rapidly disappearing. Fortunately, parts of it were
preserved as public parks, such as Lammas Park and
Walpole Park.
It was during the Victorian period that Ealing became a
town. This meant that roads had to be built, drainage
provided, schools and public buildings erected. The man
responsible for much of all this was Charles Jones,
Borough Surveyor from 1863-1913. He also designed the
Town Hall, both the present one and the older one that
is now a bank, on the Mall. Ealing Broadway became a
major shopping centre.
In 1901 Walpole Park was opened and the first electric
trams ran along the Uxbridge Road. Also in 1901 Ealing
Urban District was incorporated as a municipal borough.
Ealing is home to Thames Valley University and the West
London College. The building of the new shopping centre,
opened in 1985, however, drastically altered part of the
centre of Ealing.
