Wind Direction & Heathrow runways

I have been researching wind direction for south west England re Heathrow. This shows that wind is currently predominantly from the south west. Has the wind direction changed over the years or was it, in earlier days [1929 onwards], predominantly from the west to cause the two surviving runways to be sited east/west [09/27] rather than with the prevailing wind being from the south west?
