Ealing Through Time, Paperback / softback Book

Ealing Through Time Paperback / softback

Part of the Through Time series

Paperback / softback

Description

Ealing was once known as the 'Queen of the Suburbs', though this phrase is more commonly used now by estate agents.

Ealing Through Time enables the reader to judge for themselves whether the viewpoints of Ealing justify the title in question, both in the past and in contemporary times.

Ealing was a 'country town near London' when these postcards were commissioned.

It was blessed by many fine open spaces and was near to the countryside too.

Yet it also had good transport links by train and tram to the capital and the West of England.

It had a number of prestigious private schools and other establishments that made it attractive to middle-class residents.

Much the same can be said now, despite the many changes that have taken place in the last century.
