Seen from the car park. This is in a lovely setting next to Peatmoor Lagoon. There was a poster advertising dragon races on the lake one day quite soon - sounds fun.

Part of the Cellular Operations Building, West Swindon
The building, empty until recently, has been refurbished and awaits new occupiers. At present it looks a little forlorn, like a pretty girl who's been stood up.
Update 05 July 2009: the building is now called 'Arclite House' and presently has two occupiers, HSM Ltd and Renaissance Easy Claim.
