About
Ashford town centre uniquely retains a small town charm despite being a large town close to London. This is mainly due to the variety of independent speciality shops offered in the centre with free parking. With a great sense of community Ashford has more community groups than any other town in the borough.
Bronze Age artefacts have been found in Ashford giving rise to the name Bronzefield and a henge may have been present in that period. Ashford appears on the Middlesex Domesday map as Exeforde, held by Robert, Count of Mortain. A stone bridge was built over the ford in 1789 by the Hampton and Staines Turnpike Trust, part of which is used as the rather scenic Fordbridge roundabout with its large weeping willow trees at the centre.
Ashford Manor Golf Club was established in 1902 at the property which was the Manor Farm House and provides a warm welcome to local golfers, whilst Queen Mary’s Sailing Club has a rich heritage as a top racing venue. It offers sailing, windsurfing and racing on the Queen Mary reservoir.
