North Greenford is an electoral ward in the London Borough of Ealing.[2] The ward was first used in the 2002 elections and elects three councillors to Ealing London Borough Council.
Ward profile
The ward is the northernmost in the London Borough of Ealing, spanning the length of Whitton Avenue and taking in the northernmost parts of Greenford and Northolt. The area remained largely undeveloped until the early 20th century, and is now characterised by 1920s and 1930s suburban housing.[3] Horsenden Hill, both the highest point in the borough at 84m (276ft) about sea level, as well as its largest nature conservation area at 100 hectares[4], is in the southeast of the ward. The ward also contains Grove Farm local nature reserve and ancient woodland.[5]
Political history
Between its creation and 2026, North Greenford only elected councillors from the Labour Party, with increasing majorities at each election from 2006 to 2018. The Conservative Party consistently finished second, coming closest to electing a councillor in 2006 when they missed out on the final seat by 77 votes.
In the 2026 election, the ward elected a slate of Conservative councillors for the first time. This coincided with a national swing against Labour, but also with a 6.6% swing against the Conservatives in the London Borough of Ealing, turning North Greenford from a safe Labour ward to the strongest Conservative voting ward in the borough by number of votes.
Its predecessor wards had both been competitive, with Horsenden most recently electing a Conservative councillor in 1994 and Wood End doing so in 1998.[6]
