The current St Mary's church building in Hanwell only dates back to around the early 19th century, but there are records of churches on that site back to the 10th centruy. Interestingly in the crypt of St Mary's is buried Jonas Hanway, the first Londoner to carry an umbrella. Fact. dg writes: Blimey. (10C reference removed, ta) |

I note your comments re Ealing Hospital - I had the misfortune to spend the worst week of my life there - it's even worse than you could imagine. Glad you enjoyed the canal walk - I used to enjoy this often when I lived there - think I deserve to pop back and do it again. Looking forward to the next chapter Dave B |

Yes, Ealing Hospital is the ugliest hospital in England, possibly the world, and what's worse, no-one of my acquaintance has ever been in there for an operation and come out alive! Admittedly, they were all pensioners, but all the same. I remember that stretch of canal when it had horse drawn barges on it. OMG, just how old am I? |
