[edit] HMS Warrior

Wasn't this site called HMS Warrior for a while? I recall visiting it when it had that name, and although that was a few years ago, it's definitely the same place. Rhialto 03:37, 24 July 2006 (UTC)

I live in Northwood, and that's how I've always known it. I think it was the only land base to ever be given the HMS title (usually reserved for naval ships). I'll have a look on the sign.

There are many land bases with the HMS designation, eg. HMS Collingwood, HMS Daedalus, HMS Excellent, etc. Cheers, DWaterson 11:58, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] location

If you follow Wikipedia's description of Northwood as being in Hillingdon borough, then Warrior is not in Northwood but Eastbury, Three Rivers, Hertfordshire. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 80.189.207.149 (talk) 17:43, 1 April 2007 (UTC).

Well the address is Sandy Lane, Northwood, Middlesex. I'd take it from the address that the base is in Northwood, rather than Eastbury.ALR 17:53, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

Middlesex won't be part of the address. Local government boundaries should be used to determine where things are rather than postal addresses which are a law unto themselves. Woburn, Bedfordshire, is postally in Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.125.104.213 (talk) 08:18, August 25, 2007 (UTC)
