Cippenham Meadows

Cippenham Meadows sits in the southeast of Slough as a mix of housing, open ground and community facilities. The area is built around strips of meadow and playing fields that step down from residential streets toward low-lying pasture. A network of public footpaths crosses the green spaces and is often edged by a line of mature poplars, while allotment plots and sports pitches give the neighbourhood a practical, local focus. Local shops, a primary school and community halls serve day-to-day needs and small groups use the fields for organised football and recreation.

Transport links put Cippenham Meadows within a short bus ride of Slough town centre, while cycle routes connect the neighbourhood to nearby shopping and employment areas. Conservation volunteers and residents’ groups maintain sections of the open ground and help manage seasonal grassland growth. The feel of the place is shaped by the mix of compact housing and uninterrupted stretches of grass, used by dog walkers, families and amateur sports teams, rather than by major visitor attractions.
