The Lawn - the now demolished manor house of the Goddards - would have been located at this point.

This is NOT The Lawns as stated on the other marker for this property. This is a now demolished house at the eastern end of Charlotte Mews - the road to the south of the path heading from High Street into the park. The Lawns was situation just to the right of this point where the picture quality has been damaged.

This is Swindon Old Town Railway station on the Midland and Southwest Junction Railway that went Andoversford at it's northern end and Andover in the south

To clarify the clarification. Although located in the Old Town and known as such to Swindonians, the station was officially Swindon Town and the platform signs said as much. The pre-grouping company was the Midland & South Western Junction Railway (NOT South West), and so it was also referred to as the "Midland" station in earlier times. It closed to passengers in September 1961.
