Brentford & Isleworth Meeting House

The building was originally built for the Quakers in 1785, on a site purchased from wealthy Quaker Benjamin Angell, and has been regularly extended since. The West London Quaker burial ground and a garden surrounds the house. The front wall of the house was badly damaged during the London Blitz in 1940.[2]
