Archway in Britten Road
In a whole district where architects have been encouraged to go way beyond the normal "suburban housing" constraints, the two giant archways in Britten Road have to be some of the most flamboyant examples.
There is a matching one of these opposite, with a small green in the centre.
No endless roads of drab little boxes round here.

View in the car park, Orbital Retail Park, Swindon
The McDonald's drive-thru is quite new and isn't yet on Google Earth, which was last updated in March 2007 at this location. This being 25 December, the retail park is deserted and the McDonald's closed.

Large house on the corner
One of the many imposing new buildings in this recent part of town. It is unfortunate that the central section is discolouring rather badly.

McDonald's Drive-Thru, Orbital Retail Park, Swindon
This example of the popular and much-loved fast food outlets is fairly new having been built since March 2007, the last time one of the Google Earth planes flew over. It is on the north-western corner of the large retail park, conveniently located for shoppers who have maxed out their credit cards at the nearby Asda Walmart, Next or Marks and Spencer's.

Orbital retail park, West Swindon
The signage is a little confusing when it comes to leaving the extensive retail park. You can reach the exit by ignoring the command on the road.
