1st Swindon Sea Scouts hall, Haydon Wick
Located on a road named The Brow, next to an entrance http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/2306696 to Haydon Wick Primary School.
Sea scouting traces its origins back to 1909. Its early development paralleled that of the land-based scouting movement. The majority of sea scout centres are in coastal areas, or near the Thames in London. However, there are groups in most inland counties, such as here in Wiltshire.

Cheddar Road, Moredon, Swindon
This view is in the heart of Moredon, a municipal housing estate built in the 1950s. Cheddar Road leads away from the viewpoint to its junction with Barton Road on the left. The houses on the left are of the 'Cornish' design, one of several non-traditional building systems developed in the immediate post-war years to enable as many houses as possible to be built by local authorities in the shortest time. The design principles typically involved the use of reinforced concrete and the generic term 'PRC' for pre-cast reinforced concrete was coined to describe system-built housing. Unfortunately, the use of this material led to structural problems developing in the life of the properties and they had to be comprehensively rebuilt to enable their continued existence. The bungalows on the right are of more traditional design and construction and were built to accommodated retired people.
