Linworth Road
Linworth Road is in Cleeve Estate. This was built from 1950 onwards to house workers at Smiths Industries. It was built as a garden suburb at a time when few people owned cars and so no provision was made. In this picture, from 1977, few cars are in evidence but go there today, and a visitor can hardly move without falling over them.

Bishop's Cleeve is a large village in Gloucestershire. It lies at the foot of Cleeve Hill, the highest point of the Cotswolds, some 3½ miles north of Cheltenham. Although Iron Age and Roman remains have been found locally, the earliest known origins of the village date to the 8th Century. A monastery and surrounding land was given to the Bishop of Worcester, and the village became the Bishop’s Cliffe. The village grew rapidly when an aerospace factory was built nearby after the Second World War and continues to grow.

The Swallow Inn (3) - sign, Bishop's Drive, Bishop's Cleeve, Glos
The sign is very badly faded but there is still enough detail to see that the pub is named after a sailing ship, not a bird. What connection, if any, there is with Bishop's Cleeve is unknown. On the other side, the image of the ship has faded to invisibility.

The Swallow Inn (1), Bishop's Drive, Bishop's Cleeve, Glos
This fairly modern looking building probably started out as an estate pub in this large village, which has a small number of pubs in relation to its population figure. Today it is both a pub and a Cantonese restaurant. To the right of the pub is a car park and behind that a parade of shops.
