I'm having a 'senior moment', although living for years in London I
cannot place Henley's corner, tried google maps but they think it's in
Canada, I remember junction A406 and A5 as Staples Corner (there used
to be a mattress factory there) Is it the junction at Stonebridge Park
just on the other side of the tracks from the Ace Cafe? if so where
was the Henleys (I presume Garage)?


Google Maps will happily find Henlys Corner (at 51.589829,-0.199835),
and so will Wikipedia
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A1_road_(London)#Henlys_Corner.
The OP's spelling is not reliable.
