Whitehill Farm, Beaumaris Road, Swindon
In the 17th century, Whitehill Farm was a 65-acre dairy farm. Then, together with Mannington and Toothill Farms, it was bought by Thomas Sutton, and formed part of the Charterhouse estate in Lydiard Tregoze. The rents from the tenant farmers went to fund Charterhouse School, which started as a charitable venture for the education of poor boys. In 1919, the three farms were sold to Wiltshire County Council and broken up into smallholdings for the use of ex-servicemen returning from WWI. In the 1970s, they were engulfed by modern housing after westward expansion of Swindon was approved. Whitehill Farmhouse is now a Swindon Borough Council property.

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

Inside the Link Centre, Swindon
Part of the main entrance lobby.
Yes, if the architect didn't make you laugh hard enough / shake your head / shudder looking at the exterior of the building come inside and get a load of this. A celebration in beige breezeblock, strip-lighting, dusty ducting and confusing layouts. It's probably 30 years old but feels unfinished.
