Upper Halliford history
Etymology
Oral tradition says the halliford describes the ford that crossed the Ash before Gaston Bridge was built. The Old English equivalents of the Germanic word heili(g)/(ch) included the words that later became fixed in English lexicon as hallowed and holy.
Early history
Halliford was part of Sunbury on Thames’s western limits as the Ash and a north-south stream/ditch near-siding the Queen Mary Reservoir (built 1925–31) The place was in Spelthorne Hundred until hundreds became redundant with the formation of rural districts and urban district councils. It was until 1 April 1965 was in the historic and sports-use county of Middlesex.
Post Industrial Revolution
In 1894 the urban district of Sunbury on Thames was founded, comprising just the parish of Sunburry on Thames including, as the ecclesiastical parish does, Upper Halliford and at that time also included Charlton. Until the 1950s there was very little new building in the western half of the western part of the parish. Gravel-working had left many large pools around the villages and the rest of the land was open, with many market gardens and glasshouses.
