Ealing is one of the seven major towns in the London Borough of Ealing. A rural village until communications with London got better with the improvements to the road to Oxford (later Uxbridge Road) in the 18th century and culminating with the coming of the railway in 1838. Ealing expanded greatly with suburban development during the 19th century and became known as the "Queen of the Suburbs" due to its greenery and because it was halfway between city and country. Ealing became a municipal borough in 1901. Growth continued throughout the 20th century and Ealing became part of a modern London borough in 1965.

65-70 Mattock Lane are three pairs of semi-detached Victorian cottages are constructed in stock brick with bold stucco trimming and have hipped slate roof. Early timber sashes with very fine glazing bars are still retained and add to the character of the architecture.
The tree which is touching the wall of this house was a mature tree in the 1950s and bore a prolific crop of pears each year. "Deans Villas" is inscribed on the small plaque which is inset into the house wall.
