Hanwell's name is thought to have come from the words hana, meaning a cockerel, and weille, meaning a stream. Hanwell was an ancient village, dating back to the 5th and 6th centuries.
Hanwell is mentioned in the Domesday Book as consisting of farmland and meadowland. There was also a mill. Most of the villagers were peasants or ‘villains’, working on the land, but there were three craftsmen and two slaves as well. The total number of people was about 100.
The art decoclock tower on Hanwell Broadway was unveiled on 7 May 1937 in celebration of the coronation of King George VI. The mayor at the time, Frederick Woodward, said "I consider Hanwell one of the finest gateways to the city of London, and I cannot think of a more fitting place for the clock".
The area is steeped in history which is enjoyed by young and old with many different types and styles of property. It is home to the popular Brent River Park and Brent Valley Golf Course for outside activities and supported by independent local shops.
Hanwell is located North of Boston Manor, East of Southall, South of Greenford, West of West Ealing.
