Brentford and Chiswick was a parliamentary constituency centred on the Brentford and Chiswick districts of west London. It returned one Member of Parliament to the House of Commons of the Parliament of the United Kingdom.

The constituency was created for the 1918 general election, and abolished for the February 1974 general election.

This former constituency is located in the south-west of the historic county of Middlesex, in what is now west London. It was established as a division of the county, named after the towns of Brentford and Chiswick. In the 1885-1918 distribution of parliamentary seats it had been the southern part of the Brentford division.

In 1918 the constituency comprised the Brentford and the Chiswick Urban Districts. In 1927 the two districts were combined to form a single Brentford and Chiswick Urban District, which in 1932 became the Municipal Borough of Brentford and Chiswick. In 1950 the boundaries of the seat were left unchanged, but it was reclassified as a borough constituency.

In 1965 Brentford and Chiswick became part of the London Borough of Hounslow and Greater London.

In the redistribution of parliamentary seats, which took effect at the February 1974 general election, this seat was abolished and replaced by Brentford and Isleworth.
