Eastcote House stood in these gardens from around 1507 until it was demolished in 1964. It was the principal residence of the Hawtrey Deane family. All that remains of its many outbuildings and grounds are the stables, dovecote, walled garden, ha-ha and many fine trees. Ruislip-Northwood Urban District Council purchased the house and grounds in 1931 after it became endangered by a proposed new housing development. Sadly, under the ownership of the Council, the condition of the house deteriorated and in 1962 the house was declared unsafe, and it was demolished two years later after the Council ruled there were no features of the house worth retaining!

This view is from High Road Eastcote. The path on the left crosses the River Pinn just ahead. The River Pinn is a tributary of the Frays River which it joins at Yiewsley after passing through Ickenham and Uxbridge.

The Celandine Route follows the River Pinn between Pinner and Uxbridge. This is beside Eastcote High Road.

These ancient gnarled willows grow beside the River Pinn and give a pleasant rural feel to this stretch of suburban road. The entrance to Eastcote House can be seen beyond.
