This image was obtained from the high ground south of Wroughton with the Marlborough Downs behind the viewpoint and is facing north-west. In the foreground are residential properties in Church Hill, Wroughton at map reference SU140803. The nearest commercial building above the trees in the centre is Batleys Cash and Carry in Frankland Road, Blagrove at SU115828 with, just behind it the yellowish Anchor Butter factory. Even further away is the Windmill Business Park at SU106834. The windmill that gives its name to the Park is visible near the top left corner of the image. The distance between the windmill and the viewpoint is 5.45 kilometres.
