Historical evolution
Once a tiny farming village, Wembley was a part of Middlesex's Harrow on the Hill parish for more than eight centuries. With the arrival of railroads and the development of the Wembley Park estate in 1984, it started to develop in the late 19th century. And ever since, Wembley in the London Borough of Brent has developed into a bustling urban neighbourhood.

Living in Wembley provides an added benefit in terms of transportation. The area has great access to central London through a network of tube lines, such as Bakerloo, Jubilee, and Metropolitan Lines, as well as overground and national rail services.
