College Road is situated in the locality of
West Ealing, within the area of

West Ealing in its present form is less than 100 years old. In 1234 there was a
hamlet called West Ealing. This name though appears to have been replaced by the name Ealing Dean at some time.
West Ealing station, for example, began life in 1871 being called something else - Castle Hill & Ealing Dean Station. The Ealing Dean name is possibly derived from 'valley' or 'denu' and the earliest reference to it goes back to 1456.
In 1882,
Ealing Lawn Tennis Club began life on land which abounded St. Leonards Road and the
Great Western Railway (GWR). The club quickly became the most successful ladies lawn tennis club in the world. Three Ealing-born club members -
Blanche Bingley,
Charlotte Cooper and
Dorothea Douglass - between them won 13
Wimbledon Singles titles between 1886 and 1906. In 1906 the club relocated to Creffield Road in Ealing Common.
