Rayfield Grove in Swindon is located off Ferndale Road. According to the book 'Roadways' (by Peter Sheldon and Richard Tomkins) is was built in 1904/5 and was named after the nearby River Ray.
Our photographs were snapped as we walked along the backses of Ferndale Road and saw a crane delivery building materials. We were passing again six months later so took the opportunity of taking a few more photos of the same plot. If memory serves us correctly, this was once the site of a wholesale tabaconist.
Our photographs are a snapshot in time to record a building's history.
Businesses shown may no longer be trading there.
