An Archaeological Desk-Based Assessment of Land at Lion House, Slough, Berkshire
An Archaeological Desk-Based Assessment of Land at Lion House, Slough, Berkshire NGR TQ 598 699 Parish of Slough Slough Borough Prepared for O.C. Ventures Ltd Caroline Russell BA, PhD Project No. 2919 June 2007 Archaeology South-East, 1, West Street, Ditchling, Hassocks, W. Sussex. BN6 8TS Tel: 01273 845497 Fax: 01273 844187 [email protected] Archaeology South-East Lion House, Slough _____________________________________________________________________ Summary A Desk Based Assessment has been prepared for a plot of land at Lion House, Petersfield Avenue, Slough. A review of existing archaeological and historical sources suggested that the Site has a low potential for containing deposits of Prehistoric to Medieval date, and a high potential for containing deposits relating to a terrace of late 19th century buildings. Farming and various phases of construction in the 19th onwards is likely to have truncated to an unknown extent any archaeological deposits across much of the site. _____________________________________________________________________ i Archaeology South-East Lion House, Slough _____________________________________________________________________ CONTENTS 1.

Link to OPAR 2012 Newsletter
The Old Paludians Newsletter Founded 1915 Website: www.oldpaludians.org March 2012 EDITORIAL As you all know, Slough Grammar School is this year celebrating its centenary. In 2015, The Old Paludians Association will celebrate its own centenary. During this time there have been so many changes, both globally and locally. Slough has changed completely since the 1950/60s and those changes would seem even more astonishing to anyone who attended the original Slough Secondary School in 1912. During the past 100 years not only have we suffered two terrible World Wars- as you will see reflected in some of the many news items sent in – but also Man has taken his first steps on the moon and…computers have arrived on Earth. Every pupil has access to the latest technology and even Luddites, such as your Editor, find themselves making frequent references to dongles, dingbats and the latest Blu-ray technology (my apologies to those of you who have never travelled this path, but be reassured - you may be better off as it can be infuriating when it fails !). All this has made almost everything accessible to almost everybody, which may or may not be an advantage. We shall see! We are simply left wondering what the next 100 years will bring. Will it still be considered polite to thank someone for help received? I sincerely hope so! With that in mind, I should like to thank Mrs Mercedes Hernández Estrada for allowing us to once again invade the building for this, our special reunion. This is my last editorial, as I am now handing the task over to Bob Moss (see details below).

Parish Profile 2020
ST. ANDREW’S SHARED CHURCH, CIPPENHAM, SLOUGH Parish Profile 2020 Washington Drive, Cippenham, Slough SL1 5RE, Website: https://standrewcippenham.org.uk/ Please note: Ministry and Mission during COVID-19 Following the lockdown announcement St Andrew’s closed its doors for worship on March 24th. However, church life did not stop. Through individual prayer and action members have tried to reflect God’s love to each other and our community. • Zoom has been used to continue Bible Study and Night Prayer led by our LLM • We have kept in touch with elderly and vulnerable members of our congregation by telephone and socially distanced meetings • Our weekly pew sheet has been sent electronically to families as well as being hand delivered to those not online • Our website has been updated weekly ensuring that people are aware of the other forms of worship available within the Oxford Diocese, more locally and via the media of radio and television • We have continued to host Slough Foodbank. Some members of the congregation assist with this service while many donate to it • Our Ministry Team has met regularly, and we have also worked closely with our Roman Catholic brothers and sisters especially to manage re-opening for private prayer and then for public worship On reflection: We have understood the importance of community and the simple act of gathering as a worshipping people. We have missed the buzz of conversation and the sound of laughter until our churchwarden ask for a time of quiet reflection before the service starts. Many people have mentioned their sadness at the absence of the Eucharist during closure.
