It lies within the Historic County of Middlesex, nearly 7 miles west of Charing Cross, and is characterised by excellent transport links due to the 7 railway stations in the area, more than any other residential district in London. Acton is also home to a local history museum as well as the London Transport Museum Depot’s gallery and vintage vehicles display. Acton High Street is also dotted with shops, chain restaurants, gastropubs, cafes, bars and the bustling Acton Market. Acton is just 40 minutes away from the city centre via the A40 and is serviced by the Acton Central Railway Station among other 6 railway stations.
