Part of the De Vere village hotel complex, Swindon
The entrance drive to the 'village' complex which comprises a De Vere hotel linked to a cinema and ten pin bowling alley and associated car parking spaces. The hotel houses an Italian themed restaurant and a (very expensive) pub. De Vere were until recently called 'The Alternative Hotels Group' but hey, what's in a name? Nice rooms, great staff, good conference facilities and all you might hope for in a hotel.

Interesting architecture at the Link Sports Centre. A touch of the Tall Ships in that design.

Part of the Link Centre, Swindon
As Swindon expanded rapidly in the 1970's and 1980's this was the sort of building that the town wanted; a big architectural statement, no doubt nominated and maybe even winning design awards and plaudits but it has, I understand, been plagued with some of the issues that Councils dread - Legionella in the water supply system, floods, electrical failures related to floods and an on-going maintenance and building expenses bill far beyond what anyone envisaged when beaming at architects plans in halcyon days long ago.
Plus, to a visitor at least, it isn't immediately obvious where the entrance door is. I virtually circumnavigated it before finding it.
It's a leisure centre (housing 'the biggest indoor climbing-wall in Wiltshire'), ice rink (home to Swindon Wildcats ice hockey team), library (scarlet carpet tiles!) and community centre.
Yes, it does look like a waste incinerating facility, dockside warehouse or a bus depot maybe.
