Mobile homes park, Blunsdon Abbey
An isolated rural community, until quite recently - now surrounded on all sides by the onward march of Swindon's northern expansion.

St Andrew's churchyard, Blunsdon St Andrew
Viewed facing east, the south elevation of the church can be seen at the left. Beyond that is what was once an abbey, still known as Blunsdon Abbey, which is now a residential property having had a rather modern-looking extension added.

Jade Close
We have moved away from the architectural extravagance of some of the housing just a few blocks to the south.
A comfortable 1930s style retro is more the fashion here.
Jade Close is one of a number of local streets to have the name of a gemstone.

Looking west from Blunsdon Abbey, Blunsdon St Andrew
Almost hidden in the trees is the small parish church of St Andrew. The horizon slopes the way it does because the view is diagonally up a small slope. It could have been straightened but then it wouldn't be a true representation of the view.
