Haven Green was once known as Ealing's Haven and is seen on maps dating back to 1770. In the early 19th century the area became quite fashionable when the Duke of Kent took up residence nearby. In the 1850s, with improved travel villages began to grow into towns and merged into unbroken residential areas. It was at this time Ealing began to be called the "Queen of the Suburbs", a name that was also applied to Surbiton. This view looks across Haven Green to houses on the north side of the road, also called Haven Green from the south-west corner at Spring Bridge Road.
