Staines Local Information
Staines is a town in the Spelthorne Borough of Surrey on the south
side of the River Thames. Because of its proximity to London and
Heathrow a number of well known companies have set up their national
headquarters there.
The Romans settled in Staines in 43 AD and shortly afterwards the
first Staines bridge was constructed over the River Thames. Because
of its location the town has long been involved in national affairs.
Sir Thomas More was tried for high treason in a public house there
in 1535.
The major industry in Staines used to be the production of the
floor covering linoleum. The factory closed in 1970 and is now the
site of the Two Rivers retail park. Spelthorne Museum features a
display depicting the history of the linoleum company.
The British car maker Lagonda was founded in the town in 1906.
The first car rolled off the production line the same year. A car
built at the factory won the 24 hour le Mans race in 1935. Lagonda
became part of Aston Martin in 1947.
For those fun-loving, adventurous people why not take the family
to Thorpe Park in your car rental. The theme park boasts ‘something
for everyone’ and some of the rides are sure to make you scream
with fright!
Whether travelling around Staines for business or pleasure, make
