Carpet Cleaning Perivale UB6

The 11th-century Domesday Book records an apple orchard on the site today’s Perivale. The area was called Little Greenford or Greenford Parva before the 16th century. The first mention of the name comes from 1508 as Pyryvale. It supposedly derives from “perie” which means pear tree and vale. Mungo Jerry’s bassist Mike Cole, cricketer Antony Hooper, Suede’s guitarist Richard Oakes, Yes’s keyboardist Rick Wakerman, and record producer Chris Thomas are some of the notable people born in this West London area. Perivale was a filming location for 2000 comedy Snatch.

St Mary’s Church is one of the most notable buildings in the UB6 area. It dates from the 12th century and it is one of the oldest churches in London. It has grade I listed status since 1950. In the 15th century, resident Henry Myllett built Perivale Manor. It was close to the church and it featured a moat. In 1784, the manor was demolished. The Rectory House was another 15th-century building that was sadly demolished in 1958. In the 16th century, the area was famous for its wheat farms. The hay that fed London’s horses in the 19th century came from this area.

The Hoover Buildings was established in 1932. In the 1960s, more than 3,000 people worked in the factory. Along with Sanderson Wallpapers, the Hoover factory offered great conditions for its workers.
