Library Address and Opening Dates
Where to find the library
The library is located at 23 Hillingdon Road, Uxbridge, Middlesex opposite RAF Uxbridge.
From Uxbridge Underground station: various buses and some U routes stop at the Greenway; from West Drayton (BR) Station bus U3, stops just before the traffic lights at Junction of the Greenway and Hillingdon Road; Uxbridge LT Bus & Underground Station are about 12 minutes walk away, and the bus goes a long way round, so it may be quicker to walk. Turn left out of station and walk along the High Street to the Civic Centre and then pass the RAF base. Library is on the opposite side of road to the RAF base, about 200 metres after its main entrance.
Access for all-comers is via the unmade up road: Park Road East, adjacent to 25 Hillingdon Road, (about 120 metres on the Uxbridge side of the Greenway traffic lights, where there is Jack's fish & chip cafe); and then turn left into alleyway behind numbers 21-25, then look for the RCTS signs. You SHOULD bring a TORCH or FLASHLIGHT for the winter openings, as part of the access route is dark and can be very puddled after rain has fallen.
LIBRARY CORRESPONDENCE only to T. Silcock, 17 Raisins Hill, Pinner, Middx. HA5 2BU. Letters must NOT be sent to Hillingdon Road as there is no as there is no facility for the Librarian to collect post sent there.

IMPORTANT NOTE - CAR PARKING Restrictions
Parking is NEVER permitted in Park Road East, the unmade up access road. Private clampers are on patrol.
Hillingdon Road is now residents ONLY parking 0900-1700 Monday to Friday. This means there are usually some spaces there at 1700.
There are pay and display bays in the Greenway and other local roads, including Villiers Street, in the area beyond the old GWR branch route. Some have free parking for 30 minutes, but all require parkers to display (& pay) a ticket.
There is pedestrian access from the Greenway via Merryfield Road into Park
Road East via an Archway then turn right and the Library's alley way is
about 100yards on your right.
An alternative is to park in the town centre car parks.
