Yeading in West London is remarkable for not really having anything remarkable in it. It was entirely rural until after the Second World War when the Yeading Lane estate was constructed. In terms of housing there is a lot (and I mean a lot) of semi-detached family housing along with the occasional supermarket and convenience store. As it's deep in the suburbs there is plenty of open space like the Belmore playing fields and King Georges field which are mainly for football and dog walking.
Yeading Brook is quite nice for a stroll. In terms of access to public transport it's fairly terrible as Yeading sits between two (very far apart) tramlines running into the centre without being near either. So living here will mean you're very dependent on cars or more likely busses to get you to around. The nearest tube line is Northolt on the central line which is good 20-30 minutes by bus from the centre of Yeading.
