Swindon & Cricklade Railway
off Tadpole LaneJust down the road. Perfect for railway fans
Well worth a visit in spring. check out www.crickladecourtleet.org.uk/north-meadow for details of when the rare Snakeshead Fritillary flowers are in bloom (late Spring). A nice place for a walk beside the start of the River Thames which eventually flows to London at most other times of the year (except when the river is in flood).
