ArtisiFabricaAbout Hammersmith and Fulham
Hammersmith and Fulham is a London borough in west London, part of Inner London, bordered by Brent, Kensington and Chelsea, Wandsworth, Richmond upon Thames, Hounslow and Ealing. It was formed in 1965 from the old boroughs of Fulham and Hammersmith and took its present name in 1979. Its neighbourhoods include Hammersmith, Fulham, Shepherd's Bush, White City, East Acton and Old Oak Common, and the council usually meets at Hammersmith Town Hall.
The borough broadly matches the ancient parish of Fulham, whose manor was granted to the Bishop of London more than 1,300 years ago; Hammersmith became a separate parish in 1631. Fulham Palace, long linked with the Bishops of London, stands by a natural crossing point of the Thames and now has a museum, a walled garden and a botanic garden. Fulham grew industrial from the early 19th century, while White City hosted the Franco-British Exhibition and the Olympic Games in 1908, and the BBC opened Television Centre there in 1960.
The Thames forms the borough's riverside boundary and carries the first half of the Boat Race course, and rowing clubs remain on Lower Mall in Hammersmith. The Hurlingham Club and the Queen's Club are in Fulham, and the borough is home to three professional football clubs, Chelsea, Fulham and Queens Park Rangers.
