On a daily basis the passage of aircraft makes us realise that people pass through Sunbury, not just by train or on the bus, but overhead. Helicopters and the occasional airship emphasise the presence of the aerial travellers and the proximity of Sunbury to Heathrow.

Concorde was a notable  sight at the time of the construction of the embroidery.
Sunbury has grown steadily as a transport intersection from the coming of the railway in 1864 to the building of the M3 in the 1980's

Sunbury Clock
Long before the M3 was built, Sunbury Clock announced one's arrival at Sunbury. Erected in 1897 to celebrate the Diamond Jubilee of Queen Victoria the clock was originally sited at the junction of the five roads at Sunbury Common.
