History
It is named after Khlong Bang Phrom, a khlong (canal) currents through the northern part and a dividing line between its area with neighbouring Bang Ramat.
In the past, Bang Phrom used to be a rice planting area and there was a wide area extending to neighbouring subdistricts such as Bang Ramat. Local farmers therefore respect Phosop (goddess of rice) and there was a shrine dedicated to her which still exists today inside Wat Siri Watthanaram where confluence of three khlongs Bang Phrom, Lat Ta Niao, and Latmayom. Also in those days, they will have a ceremony to invite the Phosop statue procession to the various khlongs in Taling Chan at around 09.00 am. Then brought up to be enshrined in a local temple and have a complete celebration all night. Later the next day, therefore back by passing Khlong Bang Chueak Nang.
