Dist:0.3km<br/>This one third scale model of Concorde is at the northern end of the vehicle tunnel to Terminals 1, 2 and 3 at Heathrow, and at the southern end of the M4 Motorway spur. The right hand one of the two white coaches is emerging from the northbound tunnel from the Terminals. The airport itself opened for civilian use in 1946. The photo was taken from the A4 Bath Road overbridge.

Dist:0.4km<br/>This cannon embedded in the ground just by the Northern Perimeter Road of London Heathrow Airport marks the north western end of General Roy's original base line for setting out the Ordnance Survey triangulation of Great Britain in 1784. The plaque on the base was put in place in 1926 to mark the 200th anniversary of General Roy's birth. The south eastern end of the base line is in Roy Grove at Hampton, on the other side of what was at the time Hounslow Heath [[2651617]].

Dist:0.5km<br/>A unique survivor of a bygone age amongst the generally grotesque modern development around London Heathrow Airport. This C18th coaching inn was in 1765 known as the 'Three Pigeons' and is the only survivor of many such coaching inns in the vicinity along the Bath Road. Under plans for the expansion of Heathrow Airport with the construction of a third runway this was due to be demolished but the plans have now been shelved.

Dist:0.5km<br/>This is the area of shops and seats for international departures from Terminal 1, after passing through security and before going to the gates. Late morning on a weekday, so it wasn't very busy. If I'd known British Airways had computer problems and didn't manage to supply any food on the flight to Rome, I would have bought a sandwich.
