Hanwell Community Centre on Westcott Crescent (previously Cuckoo Schools)

Cuckoo Schools was a large school for children of destitute families which was created as the Central London District Poor Law School[1][2] by the City of London and the East London and St. Saviour Workhouse Unions in 1857. It was built on the land of Cuckoo Farm on Cuckoo Hill in Шаблон:Convert of Hanwell. Шаблон:Convert were kept as a working farm to educate and feed the children.

The school was closed down in 1933. In the same year a large housing estate began to be built on the Шаблон:Convert site around the school. This was completed in 1939. Some damage due to a flying bomb was sustained during World War II. The estate which became known as the Cuckoo Estate is now a conservation area.[3][4]

The school buildings which remain, consisting of the old administrative block, are now used as the Hanwell Community Centre on Westcott Crescent,[5] and they are a Grade II listed building since 19 January 1981.[6] In 2015 the London Welsh School moved into the building.[7]
