Thanks to eagle-eyed Pete Daymond, we are ashamed to admit that the 1st Ickenham Scout Group was missing from the Useful Links page. Apologies. We’ve made good the omission and resequenced the list. If anyone has a working link for the Wayfarers, we’d love to hear from you. Thank you.
Please don’t abuse these contacts. 101 is great for non-emergencies and 999 for genuine emergencies. Here are all the local contact points:
If you have a local issue, contact your Safer Neighbourhood Team sergeant by email:
Phone 999: Emergencies
Phone 101: Non urgent
And then there is always Inspector Rob Bryan, Hillingdon North Safer Neighbourhoods | Hillingdon Borough
Thanks to an interactive mapping service provided by The Telegraph, we’ve been able to plot the Green Belt parts of Ickenham. Link to the original for exact detail, but here’s a close approximation (the darker green is Green Belt):
Trawling around looking for a definitive Green Belt map for Ickenham (here’s a clue), I noticed this description of Ickenham in Hidden London. We are, apparently, “A genteel residential suburb situated between Uxbridge and Ruislip.”
Hidden London claims to take, “an informative, historically inclined look at a variety of the capital’s more obscure attractions, curiosities, districts and localities.”
