The image taken in the late 1950's of
Chippenham Road Council Houses, Ordnance Survey Grid
Reference SU 016 795. The brick houses were built adjacent
to the main Swindon to Chippenham A420 road. The priority of traffic was routed via Dauntsey.
The 10 houses at St. Michael's Close, situated behind
these houses, were being considered and planning applications
drawn during early 1949.
