Temple Street, Swindon, Wiltshire
Temple Street, in the town centre, is a short road off Commercial Road and lead to the Baptist Tabernacle at one time. We remember on the church premises a building called 'Dorothy House', which was the caretaker's home. The Tabernacle is long gone and in its place are offices and shops for all kinds of businesses. At time of writing (December 2016), Aspen House has been demolished and the site awaits redevelopment.
Our photographs are a snapshot in time to record a building's history.
Businesses shown may no longer be trading there.
