This looks like the Great West Road, in Hounslow (but I'm probably wrong!) If I'm right, I challenge anyone to have a picnic there today! 

My instant thought was somewhere at the top of the A3, there's miles of it that looks like that.

Interesting to see a different version of that photo. A slightly cropped version appeared in a 1978 issue of Autocar, complete with caption:

 

Aha. I claim my five pounds. 

But as @Andrew353w says you would struggle to have a picnic there now, I imagine there is a crash barrier through the middle of the grass and I expect it's resident permit parking on the service road so expect you'd get a ticket if you parked there very long, clutch or no clutch.

If you told anyone there that less than 20 years later they would be going the other way they would probably have laughed in your face!

Tubes were the norm on Ladas right up till they stopped being imported in 1997.
