| Acton
Hotels, London: |
|
|
| Acton is an extensive
area in West London, situated 6.4 miles (10.3 km) west of Charing Cross.
At the time of the 2001 census, Acton, comprising the wards of East Acton,
Acton Central, South Acton and Southfield, had a population of 53,689 people.
The name Acton derives from the Anglo-Saxon for "oak town". Originally
an ancient village (mentioned in the Domesday Book), as London expanded,
Acton became absorbed into the city. Nowadays, Acton lies predominantly
in the London Borough of Ealing, although East Acton is part of the London
Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham. |
| Central Acton lies on the
former main road between London and Oxford (the Uxbridge Road) and several
inns along it date back several centuries as stopping places for travellers.
Nowadays, the principal route linking London and Oxford (the A40 dual carriageway)
bypasses central Acton, but passes through North Acton. |
