The Boundary House is thought to be so called because it was the very last house at which local dues and rates were payable to Highworth, not Swindon, which, before the railways came, was a smaller town. It may have been built as replica of the owner's house in Bayswater. http://www.flickr.com/photos/swindonlocal/4595367903/
