Summary

Description
English: Plymouth Street at its junction with Drove Road, Swindon. Plymouth Street is part of what used to be known as the New Town part of Swindon. Although New Town still appears on some maps hardly anyone uses the name in contrast to the Old Town area, south of here and on a hill where, perhaps because it has some cachet, the term is commonly heard. Just visible to the right is the recently cleared site seen in this image 1726393 For a view along Plymouth Street see this image 1626896 At the left is a 2006-registered Ford Transit operated by BT. The Transit is perhaps the most ubiquitous 'white van' to be seen on Britain's road. It first appeared in the mid 1960s as a replacement for the Ford Thames. I haven't checked but I believe that the Transits are built in Slough or Southampton or perhaps both.
