History


The constituency was created for the 1950 general election, and abolished for the February 1974 general election. In a repeat of the outcome of its direct forerunner Ealing East and its larger precursor in turn, Ealing created in 1885, it was won by the Conservative standing. The runner-up at each election was the Labour candidate, as with its predecessors since 1924 inclusive.
