This estate has one of the highest proportions of senior citizens in Swindon but for years residents had to go some distance to see a GP. But the new millennium has seen the building of this new surgery, to which a practice from another part of town relocated. The site was originally reserved for a community centre but became free when the Gamekeeper Pub closed. That building was then used for the community centre. The car park to the right of the medical centre is a public car park for people using the shops and other facilities in Guildford Avenue.
