St. Paul's Swindon
« on: Tuesday 20 May 14 09:33 BST (UK) »
On Swindon Flickr, recently added, is an interesting map ( c,1876 ) of the proposed district of St. Paul's. The church was demolished in 1965. What happened to items such as the font and pulpit etc?
( Did they go to Covingham perhaps?) What happened also to the registers or did I miss them at Chippenham? Toby.

The registers are at Chippenham. Also I think they are on microfiche at Swindon Library, I am not completely certain but I will check next time I am there.
