Memories of Cranford - Francis Frith

A website devoted to geographically linked memories, maps, and photos for the United Kingdom. This particular page has to do with the village of Cranford, in Hounslow, Middlesex, just northeast of Heathrow Airport. In 1989, I stayed five weeks at the Berkeley Arms Hotel, just west of the pub, while working on a maintenance training simulator at the British Airways facility at Viscount House near Hatton Cross tube station. Comedian Tony Hancock's ashes were scattered just outside the churchyard of St. Dunstan's nearby.
