The Wichelstowe development was quite a long time in the planning, partly because there was considerable opposition to it. The 'Front Garden' was a large area of open land between the southern extent of Swindon and the M4. It is now proceeding at quite a rate. There is much information in the developers' website http://www.wichelstowe.co.uk/index.asp?pageid=1
