The Victorian redbrick building is now used by Swindon Borough Council as part of its Social Services department, aptly enough, Children's Services. At left is the much more modern Wat Tyler House, also occupied by the Council and, as might be deduced by its name, put up in the late 1980s by the then Labour administration when everyone was up in arms about the ill-fated Conservative changes to local government finances, the poll tax.
