The area round here was shaped by the Great Western Railway in the 1800s. We are facing north into the small area of solid stone-built houses that originally provided accommodation for Welsh factory workers and their families. Beyond can be seen Faringdon Road park http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/511768 which was also built by the GWR.
