Ashford Town (Middlesex) 4 Hartley Wintney 1 - Combined Counties League
Ashford is a town traditionally in Middlesex, but administered by the Surrey borough of Spelthorne. It is a suburban development situated 15 miles west south-west of Charing Cross and forms part of the London commuter belt. Spelthorne is an area of mostly greenbelt land, rivers, flood plain and reservoirs. Ashford is almost completely surrounded by the latter: in particular the Staines Reservoirs to the north east (now a bird sanctuary) and the Queen Mary Reservoir to the south. These reservoirs, resulting from gravel extraction, are part of the water supply network.
