Great Western Cottages on Moor Lane at Staines was home of Christine Keeler. According to The Telegraph, an article dated 8th November 2007 claims, “Christine Keeler used to entertain John Profumo in a disused railway carriage near here”. The affair between the two would eventually bring down Harold Macmillan's Conservative government. You can read more about "The Profumo Affair" at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Profumo_affair
