Slough is a Borough and unitary authority area within the ceremonial county of Berkshire, England. It is 22 miles (35 km) west of central London and 20 miles (32 km) east of Reading. At the time of the 2001 census, the population of Slough was 119,070 (est. 122,000 in 2006) and the borough area was the most ethnically diverse local authority area outside London in the United Kingdom.Slough is home to the Slough Trading Estate, the UK's first such estate, which, coupled with extensive transport links, makes it an important business centre in South East England. It is also home to a campus of Thames Valley University. The motor trade has long been represented in Slough. Until 1966 Citroën assembled cars in a Liverpool Road factory (later used by Mars Confectionery) on Slough Trading Estate, and they retain their UK headquarters in the town. Ford built Transit vans at their factory in Langley (a former Hawker Aircraft site from 1936 to the 1950s) until the site was redeveloped for housing in the 1990s. Ferrari, Fiat and Maserati now have offices in the town. Source : www.wikipedia.org.uk
