Why was "Hounslow Heath" known to be the most dangerous for more than 200 years? was it just an isolated place?

[VideoHistoryToday]

@genie121 Highway robbery was the thing. Obviously people travelling on routes close to London were vunerable in such a wide open place. I suppose London was still the rich centre of the country so it made sense for the Highwaymen to operate close to where their 'customers' were.

Hounslow has become a microcosm of London, taken over by Third World invaders. Now they have control of the Council the mosques are springing up.

that's bollocks ! I am French and I lived in Hounslow next to the Hight street during almost a year and never had any troubles even when I came back from work around 2 am. This video, at the end, shows us people who died in Hounslow. but people died in every city in every country around the world. I am sure it s not the best place to live in england, but it's not the worst. We have in France some pretty bad cities really really really worst than Hounslow (which is Disney Land compare to ours).

I first went to Hounslow with a friend's mother to shop in a very untidy little place that was known to be cheap and good for bulk buying food stuffs. The very first Tesco!

That was in 1965......... I went back in 72 to buy a nice coat........... But now the place in loaded with spitters and people who don't care where they throw rubbish who like to destroy what once was a nice little place to explore. Hate it now!

Great video thank you.
