De Beers helipad
HOLBORN: Private helipad
Note: This picture (2011) was obtained from Google Earth ©
Operated by: De Beers diamond merchants
Location: In Charterhouse Street, just W of Farringdon Road
Landing area: On top of De Beers building in Charterhouse Street
NOTES: I have stood in Farringdon Road and watched a helicopter landing here. As I understand it, and I might well be mistaken; when a shipment of diamonds arrives in the UK, presumably at HEATHROW (?), they are then air-lifted to Holborn by helicopter.
If this is correct, where does the helicopter operate from at HEATHROW?
We'd love to hear from you, so please scroll down to leave a comment!
