[2] In 2019, IMG Studios became the location of the video assistant referee (VAR) hub for English domestic football.
As a result, "Stockley Park" is sometimes used as a metonym for the VAR officials or the decisions made during football matches.
The Elizabeth Line operates a stopping service between Reading and Shenfield or Abbey Wood as well as to Heathrow Terminal 4.
West Drayton railway station is located 1.1 miles (1.7 km) southwest of Stockley Park.
"Stockley" is believed to be a portmanteau word derived from Cowley stock, the generic name given to the locally produced brick in West Middlesex.
The name is a common and possibly humorous description in central southern England for land of poor fertility - (Starve all).
In 1872 it was extended south of the farm into the Parish of West Drayton, reaching a distance of 1120 yards from the mainline of the canal.
[18] In 1884 Pocock conveyed his interests to Clement Burgess Broad and George Harris, of South Wharf, Paddington.
[21] On 2 February 1890 Broad Harris and Co. entertained their tenants and employees at the inaugural opening of the Starvehall Mission Hall.
It was pointed out that Broad & Co. had thought that they could rename Starveall without sanction and afterwards had realised their mistake and had written to the council asking them to pass a resolution confirming their action.
Approximately 70 men of Stockley served in the armed forces in the First World War with 11 giving their lives in the conflict.
A war memorial tablet bearing their names was erected outside the mission hall which was unveiled in a ceremony on 6 January 1921.
