Slough Local

Come, friendly bombs, and fall on Slough!

"Slough" is a ten-stanza poem by Sir John Betjeman, first published in 1937. It was written in protest against 850 factories that were to be built in the English town of Slough. Fast forward 70 years and Slough is a thriving town with one of the largest trading estates in Europe, home to hundreds of businesses including; Mars, 02, Black and Decker, Lego, Citroën, Fiat and Sara Lee.

Sitting at the entrance to the thriving Thames Valley, Slough is one of the economic success stories of the south-east.

• Approximately 3,000 businesses in Slough, employing 75,000 people
• 35-40,000 commuters travel into Slough every day to work
