Toothill Cottages, Freshbrook Way, Swindon (1)
The cottages aren't particularly remarkable. They were probably farm-workers' dwellings built perhaps between the wars. At that time the road they are on was the main route from Swindon to the west country. That remained the case until the early 1970s when a new road south of here was built and the whole area now known as Toothill and Freshbrook was developed as large housing estates, surrounding the cottages with new houses. The once main road became just suburban in character, servicing the residents of the new dwellings. The cottages survived the succeeding forty years (in whose ownership I'm not sure) but now it seems their life is to come to an end. The now-empty cottages and their gardens are soon to be sold at auction, probably to a developer who will demolish them and construct four new housing units. For another view see Image
