Our photographs are a snapshot in time to show a building's history.  Businesses shown may no longer be trading here.

This Hotel/Pub is located opposite Swindon's railway station.  It is a listed building, for further details see the  Historic England  website.

Over the years it has had numerous names, starting as the Great Western Hotel, then in 1973 became The Noah's Ark for ten years, then back to the Great Western, then in 1991 became the Flag and Whistle.  Finally, well almost, in 2000 it became the Great Western again - but it is known as the GW.  This information is thanks to Arkell's website - follow the link below to see more information.
