Picture Perfect

It's artist Ken White's birthday today. He's got a list of works and clients that you'd need the side of a house to write them all on. You can see many pictures of his Swindon mural works at the Swindon Local Flickr account here.

Here's some pictures of his canvas of Lydiard Park and House. Happy birthday Mr White.

Spot the Original Features

There's only three pre-1960s structures in this photo of Swindon's skyline. Can you spot them?

Wellington House, SN1 (previously Premier House), Station Square (previously 125 House), the Tri-Centre,  Milford House, New Falcon House, Plaza 21, the Telephone Exchange building, and Swindon College.

The old features are?

Day and Night at Whalebridge

Swindon's Kimmerfields phase 1 Whalebridge car park by Ed Howell and I, by day and by night.

Regent Revival

Some of the latest pictures from onsite at Swindon's Regent Circus development, including the Swindon Bear in the cinema.

There's Never Anything On The TV In Whitney Street

A new piece of street art in Swindon. It would appear that in Whitney Street, not every TV is a flat screen.

Sunshine and Rain

A break in the weather at last today and a couple of sunshine and rain pictures of Swindon's Long shop building in the rail works site. The work on the Outlet Centre's expansion into the Long Shop is underway.

Department Store Abstract

On a, finally, sunny day, here's the last remaining part of Swindon's Mcllroys department store building. The architecture of the original building is much missed, but the 1960s/1970s rebuild is often overlooked.
