Colnbrook

united kingdom

Colnbrook straddles the A4 between Slough and Heathrow, perfectly positioned at M25 Junction 14 where airport traffic meets the orbital motorway. Most drivers arrive from the M4 westbound or M25 from London, with local routes serving Windsor and Uxbridge. The Thames Valley location brings mild weather, though morning river mists can affect visibility. The 12th-century Ostrich Inn once operated as a murderous coaching inn with a trapdoor into boiling ale.
