Brentford West sits in the western part of the London Borough of Hounslow, taking in the town centre and riverside where the River Thames and the Grand Union Canal meet. It is well connected by the A4 (Great West Road), proximity to the M4 and local rail links at Brentford and Kew Bridge, and borders neighbourhoods such as Kew and Isleworth.
Historically a market and transport hub with the old Brentford Dock and 19th-century industry, the ward has seen substantial riverside regeneration - notably the Brentford Waterfront - bringing new homes, offices and public spaces. The area blends a diverse, long-established community with younger professionals, and benefits from a lively town centre, waterside leisure and proximity to the Brentford Community Stadium.
