EDITORS COMMENTS

Taken on January 28th, 1970, it offers a glimpse into the past by showcasing the external view of Swindon Station entrance. The station building depicted here is an iconic representation of its time. The photograph holds particular significance as it captures a structure that no longer exists today.

Located in Wiltshire, Swindon Station has long been regarded as a vital junction within the region's transportation network. This photo highlights not only its historical importance but also provides insight into the aesthetic choices prevalent during the 1970s.
