Is this is dupe posting because I've read it and answered part of it before..
Heathrow change was during the night of 2nd July, 1987.
If you are interested, long before that, in 1952, 16/34 L & R became 15/33 L&R.

EGNX also changed during the late 80s/early 90s.
EGNR also changed fairly recently.
Also I read somewhere that the rate of change of magnetic variation has increased dramatically in recent years
70 years from now EGCC could well be using 01/19 Left and Right.
Oh by the way, if it helps, the next geo-magnetic reversal is, (like Yellowstone), running a bit late.

The remains of the original 16/34 became known as 'Waites Alley' after a certain Captain Waites mistook it in fog for 15R and tried to depart on it...
