Westwood Road, Penhill, Swindon
The street-naming theme in Penhill is Wiltshire towns and villages. Westwood is a village near the county border with Bath and North-East Somerset. The three-storey block at the left contains quite roomy maisonettes. Penhill has benefited from a mid-life update carried out by the Council as can be seen from the external appearance of the block.

A closer look at houses in Ramsbury Avenue, Penhill, Swindon
Using the zoom feature of my camera reveals little signs of these modern times. Satellite TV dishes are everywhere now beaming the dirty digger's output into homes the world over. The deployment of a CCTV camera on a modest terraced house tells us much about the fear of crime nowadays. Neither feature was in anyone's mind when the estate was developed over 50 years ago.

This section of the avenue is climbing up the hill from 'the valley' to its junction with Downton Road. This is close to the western gridline of the square and the upper half of the image is in the next one west.

The bridge providing the viewpoint is at the northern limit of the 1950s estate but is rather newer. The houses providing the title are those to the right. Out of shot to the left is the southern edge of the northern development area.
