About

Brentford East ward occupies a northern section of the Hounslow borough, stretching from the historic High Street near the Thames towards more residential areas inland. The ward is defined by the Grand Union Canal, which forms a working waterway corridor through its centre, lined with a mix of modern apartments and older industrial buildings now repurposed for commerce. This area functions as a key local hub with essential shops and services concentrated along its main thoroughfares.

The geography is largely flat, with the canal and the elevated M4 motorway creating distinct boundaries. Residential streets consist primarily of Victorian and Edwardian terraced houses, alongside several post-war housing estates providing a significant portion of the ward's homes. A notable local landmark is the surviving, albeit truncated, tower of the former Brentford Dock, a reminder of the area's industrial past tied to the river and canal trade.
