Sipson, Bath Road, Three Magpies c1912

The rural scene depicted in this postcard has now been obliterated by Heathrow Airport. The Three Magpies is directly next to the airport. It is amazing it has survived. It would have been demolished if the proposed third runway had been approved. All of the other buildings in the postcard including the chapel on the right have gone.

  1. Hi

    Would it be possible to purchase this image, if you have copies of the postcard, or perhaps an enlarged image of the same?

    Regards

    Steve
