Feltham () is a suburban town in the London Borough of Hounslow, West London, west south west of central London and south of Heathrow Airport. It is the site of Feltham Young Offenders' Institution.
==History==
Feltham formed an ancient parish in the Spelthorne hundred of Middlesex.〔Vision of Britain - Feltham parish (history ) ((historic map )) 〕 It has a record in the Domesday Book which records 21 households and an annual value to its lord of the manor of six pounds sterling, taxable at 12 geld units and was held as lord and tenant-in-chief by Robert, Count of Mortain. A large area of ten cultivated ploughlands is recorded.〔(Domesday map )〕
Following Mortain's son's forfeit of lands (William's rebellion triggering the attainder), the land was granted to the Redvers/de Ripariis/Rivers family. The heir in that family, Hubert de Burgh ('Chief Justiciar and Earl of Kent') swapped Feltham and Kempton with Henry III for his manors of Aylsham in Norfolk and Westhall in Suffolk.〔
In 1440 Henry VI granted numerous privileges to his joint royal custodian of the two manors, including a daily income of up to 12 shillings and that "corn, hay, horse and carriages and other goods and chattels should not be seized for the king's use".〔
While under total royal control following Henry VIII's full annexation of the manor into the Honour of Hampton Court, a lease of all of its manor court rights and "franchises, privileges, emoluments, and hereditaments" was granted under his daughter Elizabeth I to the Killigrew family of Kempton Park, for 80 years.〔
However the large manor itself (with a rent-holder and future possession interest) passed 40 years later in 1631 by grant to Francis (Lord) Cottington, established at his new Hanworth Park, who had become Lord Treasurer, ambassador and leader of the pro-Spanish, pro-Roman Catholic faction in the court of Charles I.〔 His nephew sold it, after a major fire and a very temporary loss caused by John Bradshaw, who arranged the King's execution, under the Commonwealth of England, to Sir Thomas Chamber(s). His son inherited Feltham manor, whose daughter by an empowering marriage to Admiral Vere (created Lord Vere) of Hanworth in the same historic county of Middlesex (created for him 1750) led to its next owner having a very high title and degree of wealth: her son, Aubrey Beauclerk, 5th Duke of St Albans inherited the manor and a dukedom with considerable land from a cousin. The Duke was a British landowner and a collector of antiquities and works of art, seated occasionally at Hanworth, who funded an excavation in Italy which produced many sculpture artifacts. Parting with much of the Duke's surfeit of large country houses, minor plot sales dividing the two ancient manors took place in the 19th century. Finally in the early 20th century, until death, the land now considered Feltham was either already subdivided by developers and farmers or owned by senior judge Ernest Pollock turned politician, (1st) Viscount Hanworth who saw the very large Hanworth manor, which covered most of Hanworth parish divided up due to taxation and its being equally well-placed to cater to the demand for new homes due to transport links.
In this period in 1784 General William Roy set out the baseline of what would become the Ordnance Survey across Hounslow Heath, passing through Feltham.〔Harley (1969)〕 General Roy is commemorated by a local pub. The MOD Defence Geographic Centre still has a base in Feltham, used as a government mapping office.
In 1831 Feltham occupied an area of , stretching into Hounslow Heath and had a population of 924.〔Vision of Britain - Feltham parish (area ) and (population )〕 The Waterloo to Reading Line established a station here from its construction in 1848. From 1894 to 1904 the Felham parish was included in the Staines Rural District.〔 In 1901 the parish had a population of 4,534〔 and accordingly in 1904 it was split from the rural district to form the Feltham Urban District.〔Vision of Britain - (Feltham UD )〕 In 1932 the parishes of Hanworth and East Bedfont were also transferred from the Staines district to Feltham Urban District.
Feltham Urban District (colloquially known as Feltham council) was disbanded in 1965, along with the Middlesex County Council. It should be noted, however, that though for administrative purposes Feltham is now part of Greater London the geographic and historic county of Middlesex was never abolished by statute. A poll on the "Feltham, Hanworth and Bedfont Appreciation Society" group on Facebook found that Feltham residents overwhelmingly continue to identify their home county as "Middlesex".
Although opened in 1910 major expansion took place in a similar period, at the extreme south-west of the post town, at Feltham Young Offenders' Institution or HM Prison Feltham, which is a major such institution providing a range of employments and rehabilitation schemes for young people.〔politics.co.uk - (politics.co.uk ) - What is a Young Offender Institution? 〕 near the town's border with Ashford and the neighbouring village of East Bedfont.
Famous former resident Freddie Mercury (born ''Farokh Bulsara'' in Zanzibar, 1946–1991) of rock band Queen was commemorated by a permanent, Hollywood-style granite star in Feltham's town-centre piazza, unveiled on 24 November 2009 (the eighteenth anniversary of Mercury's death) by Queen guitarist Brian May, alongside Freddie's mother, Jer Bulsara, and his sister. In 2011, owing to neglect and weather damage, Hounslow Council removed the memorial, resolving to substitute a smaller one elsewhere.
