Demolition of public conveniences and other buildings in Swindon

Recently the local authority announced plans to demolish several disused buildings in Swindon including some old shop and office premises and three public conveniences. None of the buildings are of any significant architectural merit and no doubt will soon be forgotten. It seems only right to provide a visual record for future generations to wonder at.
