Acton, London, W3

Dec 13, 2011
Acton means “oak farm” or “farm by the oak trees” and is derived from the Anglo-Saxon ac (oak) and tun (farm). Originally an ancient village (mentioned in the Domesday Book), as London expanded, Acton became absorbed into the city. Acton is home to more railway stations than any other area of London; seven stations in the locality feature Acton in their name. Acton was a popular stopping place in past centuries for travellers on the Uxbridge Road on a journey to Oxford. Some of the original inns still exist. Considered to be one of London's leading areas of rejuvenation over the past two decades Acton has an excellent infrastructure for success and a good selection of big Victorian houses and select conservation areas. The area offers a good choice of public parks and open space including Acton Park, Gunnersbury Park & Springfield Gdns Acton is located North of Bedford Park Borders & Gunnersbury, East of South Ealing & Ealing Common, South of Western Avenue (A40) and West of East Acton.
