Lyneham village green roundabout located
in the north of the village. The junction is for the
main A3102 Swindon to Calne route and adjoined by the
B4069 Chippenham road.
In the early 1960's before the M4 motorway was built
the Wootton Bassett and Chippenham Roads were the main
trunk routes between Swindon and Chippenham.
The A3102 from neighboring Wootton Bassett was formerly
marked as the A420 and the current A3102 from this junction
towards Calne was the B3102. Originally this roundabout
was a T-junction with a triangular central island and
a slip road leading through traffic from Dauntsey to
Wootton Bassett.
The White Hart Inn public house is situated on the
roundabout junction.
