Thresher Drive, Groundwell, Swindon
Thresher Drive is part of a fairly new residential development in the northern part of Swindon. In this view we are close to the north-western corner of the square. The houses are in the next square north. The small road the opening of which is just visible at the right is just within this square. The unusual tube structure in the centre of the image is part of Motorola who have a manufacturing facility here. The end of the tube is at SU149893.

Pylon and Small Tree
Several strips of undeveloped land are to be found in this area. Possibly thought too steep to build on, they provide a bit of open space for local residents.
