Dist:0.6km south<br/>View from the A4 Bath Road looking south-east. The British Airways website http://www.britishairwaysjobs.com/baweb1/?newms=info41 tells us: "Compass Centre - where Flight and Cabin Crews report for duty and their pre-flight briefing sessions. Overlooking the northern runway, the Compass Centre is also the main operational centre for flight planning and scheduling the pilot workforce."

Dist:0.7km east<br/>This pub is at the junction of the A408 Sipson Road with Harmondsworth Lane. However Sipson's 700 homes, shops, pubs, small businesses and school will be buried under taxiways, terminals, concourses and car parks by 2020 if this year's government review of its 2003 Aviation White Paper approves a Third Runway at Heathrow Airport. The No Third Runway Action Group website is here http://www.notrag.org/index.php

Dist:0.8km east<br/>This chapel is on the corner of the junction of Sipson Lane with Sipson Road. The 1881 Ordnance Survey map does not show any building here at all, but there are records of a Salvation Army Hall from 1891 and a Baptist Church from 1907 on this site. The larger building in the distance and some of the nearer lower part have been converted into residential use, but Sipson Christian Fellowship occupy the nearer end of the lower part. The 1881 map shows Sipson as a small community surrounded on all sides by orchards. The whole village is threatened by the plans for a possible third runway at Heathrow Airport.

Dist:0.9km west<br/>The Five Bells is a 17th century pub overlooking the village green, but the 1881 Ordnance Survey map calls it The Sun. An example of the bane of life in Harmondsworth, or the source of employment for some, is just visible top left.
