Three historic villages with listed buildings and residents who have lived there for four generations are set to be decimated by a third Heathrow runway.
Sipson, Harmondsworth and Harlington are the pretty little villages that will be destroyed once the government's plans to build a third runway at Heathrow airport begin.
Lying stranded in the one mile strip of land between the M4 motorway and Heathrow airport, the chocolate box towns will be mowed down and face constant pollution by yet another flight path encroaching onto their rural communities.
Around 750 cherished buildings - including some that were built in the 17th century - will be demolished.
Harmondsworth, a tight-knit village with a population in the mere thousands, will be cut in half by the proposed perimeter fence. Any remaining medieval cottages would be in the middle of an airport.
