Located at 934-974 St Albans Road WD25 9NN, this bus depot dates from 1952 and was owned by London Transport until it was transferred to London Country Bus Services Ltd on the 1st January 1970. It then became London Country North West Ltd, but since the late 1990s, Arriva the Shires have been operating vehicles from this depot. Mobile phone aerials can be seen on the roof of Marchwood House, whilst "No Entry" signs have been fixed to the South gates, indicating that vehicles can only exit through them. Update: this bus depot closed on Friday 31st August 2018 with routes and vehicles being transferred to other depots.
