History
The club was established in 1987, and were originally known as Harrow Hill Rovers. They initially played in the Hounslow & District League, before moving up to the Middlesex County League. In 1998 they joined Division One the Chiltonian League. After finishing seventh in their first season, they were promoted to the Premier Division. In 2000 the Chiltonian League merged into the Hellenic League, with the club placed in Division One East. In 2001 the club was renamed Hounslow Borough.
They were Division One East champions in 2005–06 and were promoted to the Premier Division. However, they had to play home matches at Ruislip Manor's ground as the stand at their Conquest Club ground only held 70 spectators. The club resigned from the league in April 2007 resulting in their record being expunged, and later folded.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“I believe that in the history of art and of thought there has always been at every living moment of culture a “will to renewal.” This is not the prerogative of the last decade only. All history is nothing but a succession of “crises”Mof rupture, repudiation and resistance.... When there is no “crisis,” there is stagnation, petrification and death. All thought, all art is aggressive.”
—Eugène Ionesco (b. 1912)
