Tithe Map of Ealing showing the One Tun and to the east, Old Brentford, 1839/41

This image is reproduced courtesy of Corporation of London, London Metropolitan Archives

The property numbers on the map are those used in the tithe apportionment and are not the same as the house numbers allocated in 1876. Dwellings are shaded pink, work places, churches, outbuildings etc. are shaded grey

In the notes below tithe refs. are prefixed 'T', High Street house numbers have no prefix.

Tithe map, drawn by hand & water-coloured; this section shows the One Tun Inn and to the east including Ferry Square

On the northern side of the High Street, working eastwards:

  • (T372/254): the One Tun is marked with Old Spring Gardens to its west, One Tun Yard to its east
  • 'Harding Court' is marked, running between (T366/257) and (T365/257-1)
  • (T362/258-264): a parcel of land owned by John Grimault, the description indicates 7 houses and gardens occupied the plot but there look to be 8 on the map
