• The best place to go if you have a car and wana blaze sum weeeeed, or have some privacy with your bird is the car park on stoke poges lane next to the Polish Club. The Polish Clu, incidentally is the venue for a youth's party every friday night which ends up in a mass brawl outside with thugs from Britwell, Langley, Upton Lea, Wexham Court, Cippenham, Burnham, Manor Park, Northborough etc
• the high street near Wexham Park Hospital out side "Roxy Chicken" and "One Stop". outside Roxy Chicken is where the fights happen between surrounding towns of Slough such as the britwell thugz, gerrards cross crew, Burnham, and colnbrook.

• Slough high street where the criminal element of Slough's youth can often be found hanging out,entertaining themselves by kicking in shop windows, haranguing passers by for a "spare cigarette" and generally casuing as much havoc as possible in the loudesy way they can. Not to mention spitting all over the pavement.

• Many people of slough like to hang around carpet shops spesh in winter, as they can smoke drugs and keep warm in the carpt bins!!!
• manor park graffitied community centre!
• Usually, people head into the High Street goto a shop called "MACE" (litten tree end of thehigh street)with some 'identification' and buy some booze then carry on walking past the shop towards either Lascelles Park (my personal haunt) or Upton Court Park if it is a bigger gathering. More adverturous types can try going to Herschel Park where it is usually quite scenic and also, well, Deadly. +
• Bench outside Threshers on London Road, Langley (next to a bottle bank)- if you look hard enough, you can still see the curry sauce stains!!
• Bailis park is an ok spot, has a small pond and two streams, lots of trees on the far side of it, has a playground, benches scatered around the park, not a bad hangout spot, but always keep an eye out for trouble.

• Cinema, Ice rink, swimming pool, comunity centre, football ground, library
• Baylis Park - where all the little rudeboys, hang out and play on the swings, (a good place to rap spliffs when it rains is under the slide, except when it's windy), or on the basketball-cum-football thing. You'll also find benches and tables on the site of the old Baylis open air swimming pool (which was burned down a few years ago - by me and a few mates in my mispent youth).
• Salt Hill Park good place to hang out and meet friends...it used to have a water sliode a few years ago
• If you have just passed your driving test why not hook up in the safer than safe parking spot - Church Road - this leafy street really is the jewel in the crown offering a shimmering spectacle of broken glass from rife criminal activity. A fresh pile of glass a day - or your money back. You wont get your money back...
• Lascelles used to be my spot, sessioning there. There should still be a few unopened bottles of home made Whisky + Iron Bru (commonly called "Wironshite" after a few bottles) around there somewhere.
• Police Station, architectural beauty, excellent hospitality, very popular nightspot, particularly at the weekend. Free B&B for specially chosen guests. Select company. Single room ensuite with expertly trained waiter service.

• Hi, I am a tramp from Slough and I hang out by the youth center formerly Argos, situated near the The Golden Egg opposite Harrys Bar, If you are a tramp visiting the area please feel free to drop by and join me for a warm can of flat special brew. Slough is a good place to hook up with tramps and down and outs.
• Lascelles Park
• Now days younger people hang around the ice arena,the new Virgin cinema,or try to get into the pubs.But watch out for the bouncers on the doors.

The Knowhere Guide started out as a list of places to skateboard in the UK. It is a compilation of (unedited) information and views supplied by users like yourself. It is not a conventional tourist guide!

In most cases, the information in each section has been submitted by more than one contributor (the credits at the bottom of the page list some, but not all, of the contributors) and some of it dates back to the 1970s.

We make no claims as to the accuracy of the information in the Guide - our only purpose is to provide a forum for users to share their knowledge and opinions. So please keep a large bag of salt handy and be prepared to read between the lines!

If you disagree with a comment, or information is out of date, please submit an update! The contributors come from all walks of life, and their opinions are bound to be subjective, so if your view isn't represented, please speak up and contribute to the balance of the Guide. See below in the 'Have Your Say' section for how to add your voice.

If we have helped you out or made you laugh you can buy us a pint.

Have Your Say...
