Dist:0.3km<br/>Terraced houses of the early 20th century at the top of the hill in Swindon. This part of town was seen as more desirable than areas close to the railway works, thus the superior spacious houses and the rather grand street name. If you lived here in the 1920's then you had 'arrived'. One of the houses in the photo was the boyhood home of Justin Hayward, famous rock guitarist and lead singer of the Moody Blues.
