Construction work on the Wormholt Estate (1920) The East Acton area lay in a ’railway desert’ until the arrival of the Central Line. While areas to the north and south urbanised, a pocket of countryside survived very close to Shepherds Bush until after the First World War. This continuing bad connection with the rest of the area, before the First World War, allowed White City stadium to be developed as a green field site.
