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.
