Iver is in the south-east corner of the English county of Buckinghamshire and a large civil parish in the South Bucks district which in addition to the central clustered village includes the largely residential co-neighbourhoods of Iver Heath and Richings Park. ==Geography and transport== London is centred 17 miles (30 km) east. The parish shares woods, lakes and Grand Union Canal-side land covering 43 square miles, the Colne Valley regional park, with Uxbridge, Greater London spanning the edge of four counties. Most of the green space land forms Metropolitan Green Belt and two 18-hole golf courses are in the parish. Iver's western border is for the most part formed by the Wexham green buffer zone to town of Slough and further south by Langley, Berkshire, a contiguous suburb with its own railway station and amenities. One small part of the Richings Park neighbourhood is east of the M25 motorway, Thorney. Iver is intersected to the north above Iver Heath by the M40. South of the main farm and the golf course of Richings Park is a near-straight boundary, the M4 motorway beyond which is Colnbrook. The Great Western Main line bisects Iver. Richings Park and Thorney are served less than from Iver railway station. Uxbridge tube station is the nearest station to Iver Heath, has a taxi rank and adjacent car park. Iver railway station is connected well by footpath and has no car park.〔(Iver Railway Station ) First Great Western. Retrieved 24 January 2014.〕 A few Oxford services call on the station's platforms, which is for the non-express aspect of the line for stopping trains to Crossrail destinations. The informally named 'Thorney interchange' of the M25 could just as easily have be named ''Iver'' in the same way as its railway station however adopted the name of the smallest detached part of Iver shortly after its construction. Gentle Chiltern Hills lower slopes begin in the north-west of the parish giving rise to Iver Heath's name. The M40 and M25 are in cuttings north and north-west of Iver Heath. The M25 motorway is on embankment 300m from Iver village centre. Two estate areas of employment are in the parish: The Ridgeway trading and warehousing estate and Pinewood Studios. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Iver」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
