View NNW from near the junction with Hanworth Road. The name itself is interesting - this was the main road to Uxbridge in days when west Middlesex was still largely rural - and Uxbridge the next place of any consequence as you headed north-west. These days much of the intervening terrain is residential suburbs, and a stretch of the old road that crossed the Heathrow site (at its eastern end) has disappeared.
