A little about Hillingdon

Hillingdon was formed in 1965 from the Hayes and Harlington Urban District, Municipal Borough of Uxbridge, Ruislip Northwood Urban District, and Yiewsley and West Drayton Urban District of Middlesex. The councils involved were initially unable to decide upon a name, with one suggesting Uxbridge, but in October 1963 it was later revised to Hillingdon.

The coat of arms for the London Borough of Hillingdon was granted on 22 March 1965. Between 1973 and 1978, the boroughs civic centre was built in Uxbridge.

The borough has been twinned with the French town of Mantes la Jolie and the German town of Schleswig since the Hayes and Harlington Urban District created the link in 1958. The twinning programme was reviewed in 2011 and it was suggested that the link with Schleswig be ended owing to a lack of contact between the towns. In December 2011, the borough decided instead to end the link with a second German town, Emden, citing administrative problems.

The population of Hillingdon grew from 2001 to 2011 by 11.5%, which is 4.4% above the England and Wales mean of 7.1% and as such is part of the fastest population growth area in Greater London. By comparison Merton and Bromley had growth of 4.5% and Tower Hamlets had growth of 26.4%.

Landmarks in Hillingdon

The church of St John the Baptist church stands at the top of Hillingdon Hill, at its junction with Royal Lane. It was built in 1629, replacing an earlier building that had become unsafe. In 1846, the architect George Gilbert Scott was asked to design an extension, as the increasing population meant the church was becoming rather crowded during congregations. This extension was completed between 1847 and 1848 by the Fassnidge builders from Uxbridge.

On 8 November 1940, a bomb fell on the south side of the church, damaging many of the windows on the south and east sides of the church. The windows were repaired after the war. The barrel roof of the chancel was renovated in 1953 to commemorate the coronation of Elizabeth II. In 1964, a vestry was built on the north-eastern side of the Hillingdon church.

There is a notable brass on the north wall of the south aisle dedicated to John, 8th Baron Strange of Knokin and his wife Jacquetta that dates from around 1509.

Hillingdon Court

Hillingdon Court was built in 1858 by Sir Charles Mills to be used as his family home, after he had bought separate adjacent properties in Vine Lane. Both buildings were demolished and the plots combined to allow the construction of the new property. The Hillingdon mansion remained in the family's ownership until Charles Mills, 2nd Baron Hillingdon died in 1919. Part of the estate was bought by Hillingdon local authority, while the mansion was bought by the Roman Catholic Order of the Sacred Heart and became a nursing home in 1920.

After the Second World War, the mansion became a girls' school, and in 1978 it was bought by ACS International Schools to become ACS Hillingdon. Under the ownership of ACS International Schools, the mansion has been extended and converted in parts to meet the needs of a school. The area of land that had been purchased by the local authority remains today as Hillingdon Court Park.
