West Harrow is a twentieth century suburb.
Prior to the early 20th century West Harrow was completely rural.
West Harrow station opened on 17 November 1913 but the Uxbridge branch of the Metropolitan Railway had opened in 1904. By 1907, the first new streets were in place just south of the new railway. West Harrow mostly dates from the 1920s and 1930s and is almost exclusively residential.
Several of the roads in West Harrow are named after teachers at Harrow School.
