Acton, a country village during the middle ages, was gradually swallowed up as London spread outwards. Acton Green Common is a great starting point for walks and Acton Park has a 28-foot statue called the Twilight Tree carved from a dying Dutch Elm. The area is well supplied with restaurants and offers a wide range of antique shops.
