The closing 40 years of the seat's history saw Conservative victory — in 1997 on a very marginal majority in relative terms. The seat began with the market towns Uxbridge and Staines shedding the latter and its southern half in 1918; by 1945 more new seats were needed. Its eastern area merited Southall and the loss of Northolt to Ealing West and in 1950 of Ruislip , Northwood and Harefield to become Ruislip-Northwood and of Hayes and Harlington , taking up eastern territory and some of that lost in 1918. In each possible boundary reform the seat was reduced reflecting population expansion of areas outlying its core area of Uxbridge and interwoven Hillingdon , Cowley and Ickenham .Boundaries 1885–1918: The parliamentary constituency of Uxbridge was created as the westernmost county division of the historic county of Middlesex .

The parishes marked * were absorbed into Surrey and the others absorbed into Greater London , in 1965. 1918–1945: Uxbridge was cut down to be a north-western division of Middlesex. Large areas to the south were removed to form Spelthorne .
