Isleworth Walk: Town Centre【4K】

Located within Greater London, and around five miles west of Fulham and Putney, is the town of Isleworth (pronounced 'EYE-zul-worth' - the 's' is not silent!). It is speculated that Isleworth has existed as a settlement adjacent to the River Thames for over 4,000 years. Either way, its recorded history goes back to the 7th century. From an Anglo-Saxon charter in the year 695 AD, the settlement is recorded as 'Gislheresuuyrth', meaning 'Enclosure belonging to [a man called] Gīslhere' in Old English. This developed into 'Gistelesworde' by 1086 (from the Domesday Book), then later 'Ystelworth' in 1415 and finally 'Isleworth' from circa 1742. During the medieval era, Isleworth was a small village on a manorial estate. All Saints' Church, seen around the start of the walk, has a 14th century tower and foundations. The Dissolution of the Monasteries in the 16th century led to the beginnings of Isleworth's development as a wealthy residential area due to the increased private ownership of land. Much of the architecture on Church Street and Lower Square dates from the 18th and early 19th centuries. The railway arrived in Isleworth in 1850 courtesy of the London and South Western Railway with the construction of the Hounslow Loop Line. To this day, Isleworth Station is a little over half an hour away from Waterloo Station, making it a popular spot for commuters working in central London. Historically, Isleworth was part of the county of Middlesex. However, in 1965, the ceremonial county of Greater London was formed, effectively swallowing up Middlesex and parts of its neighbouring counties. During that same year, the London Borough of Hounslow formed, to which Isleworth now belongs, replacing the former borough of Heston and Isleworth (from 1894-1965). David Attenborough was born in Isleworth. 👇 SUBSCRIBE TO 4K EXPLORER FOR NEW VIDEOS EVERY WEEK 👇 https://www.youtube.com/4KExplorer?su...
