Barlow Road is situated in the locality of
Acton.
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.
