Map of the UK

Alperton is a compact, urban ward in the London Borough of Brent, set in north‑west London close to Wembley and the heavy‑industry cluster of Park Royal. The area is intersected by the Grand Union Canal and bounded by major roads such as the North Circular, and it is served by Alperton station on the Piccadilly line, which has shaped much of its development and commuter character.

Alperton combines post‑war and more recent residential redevelopment with pockets of light industry and canal‑side land being converted to housing. It has a notably diverse community and a busy local high street around Ealing Road offering South Asian shops and eateries, alongside green spaces like Alperton Park. The ward’s mix of migration‑led culture, transport links and ongoing regeneration gives it a lively, changing urban feel.
