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

This building is located on the corner of Prospect Place and Victoria Road in the old town area of Swindon and is the home to the BBC Wiltshire Radio station studios.

We have both taken part in a live broadcast here - Mandy back on 27th March 2007 when the Swindon Scratch Choir (now called Swindon Community Choir) sang 'Amazing Grace' to commemorate 200 years since the abolition of the slave trade.  We were both invited to be interviewed about our website after one of their reporters noticed us taking photographs of a near by building; he wondered what we were doing so asked us.  Mandy decided a live interview was not something she could face but Duncan bravely volunteered and so he went into the studio alone.  Time went very quickly so lots of prepared facts and figures went unmentioned, but he managed to quickly reply to the questions asked without hesitation or blanking and even managed to relax.  Well done him!  We were thrilled when the presenter suggested we might like to go to the building's kitchen to take some photographs as it has great views over Swindon.  He was right!  Our quickly snapped skylines pictures can be seen in various places on this website.
