The book aims to provide an accessible overview of the parish of Ealing and its surrounding areas, detailing points of historical, geographical, and social interest for both residents and visitors. Rather than being a deeply erudite work, it serves as a straightforward guide to the historical context and local characteristics of Ealing. The
content of the book details the rich history of Ealing, from its development during the feudal era and the customs of land tenure, to its connections with significant historical events such as the Battle of Brentford during the Civil War and the impact of the Plague in 1665. The author vividly recounts Ealing's notable figures, including martyrs of the Reformation, and references local schools, churches, and mansions, outlining the significance these institutions have had in shaping the community. Through various anecdotes and descriptions, Sykes brings to life the historical moments that have shaped Ealing’s identity, making it a compelling reference for those interested in local history.
