Shepherd’s Bush history

Origins

The name Shepherd’s Bush is thought to have originated from the use of the common land here as a resting point for shepherds on their way to Smithfield Market in the City of London. Evidence of human habitation can be traced back to the Iron Age.

19th century

A map of London dated 1841 shows Shepherd’s Bush to be largely undeveloped. Residential development began in earnest in the late 19th century. In 1904 the Catholic Church of Holy Ghost and St Stephen was completed and opened to the public.

20th century

On 13 April 1963 The Beatles recorded their first-ever BBC Television broadcast at Lime Grove Studios in Shepherd’s Bush. Lime Grove studios was demolished in 1994 to make way for residential accommodation. More recently the White City bus station is housed in the redeveloped Dimco Buildings (1898), Grade II listed red brick buildings.
