District
Where the name comes from
Named after the west London district of Hayes, from the Anglo-Saxon Hǣs or Hǣse, "land overgrown with brushwood"; the Domesday Book spells it Hesa. The station, now Hayes & Harlington, was still called Hayes when District Railway trains served it in 1883–85.
Worth knowing: The film Trains at Hayes Station, shot from the roof of a nearby factory, was almost the first demonstration of stereophonic sound with moving pictures.
