The Lock

in London

Where is the new complex situated?

Nestled on a bank of the Grand Union Canal, the Lock at Greenford Quay resides in the London Borough of Ealing. Greenford Quay is a new vibrant neighbourhood, sprawled across 8 hectares of renovated waterfront land. The master plan includes numerous amenities and attractions such as a new canal footbridge, a heritage building, beautifully sculptured public spaces, a new school, a health centre, modern offices, and a wide variety of shops, eateries, and leisure facilities.

If you seek a peaceful sanctuary away from the hustle and bustle of the megapolis, you can take a tranquil stroll along the canal that will bring you to Horsenden Hill in a few minutes. This beautiful nature conservation site includes ancient woodland, grassland, ponds, and hedgerows that make you forget all about the city buzz. After admiring the stunning sceneries, you can visit Horsenden Farm or play some golf in one of the nearby clubs.

The Lock boasts wonderful transport connections. An 8-minute walk away is Greenford Station, linked to the Central Line, which provides access to central London, the City, and Canary Wharf.
