Hounslow Heath once covered 4,000 acres but is now only 200 acres. However, it still has a feeling of spaciousness and is a very easy place to get lost. No doubt this was one of the features which made it a favourite haunt of highwaymen. The London LOOP crosses the Heath and this photograph was taken close to that path.
