Part of the Link Centre, Swindon

As Swindon expanded rapidly in the 1970's and 1980's this was the sort of building that the town wanted; a big architectural statement, no doubt nominated and maybe even winning design awards and plaudits but it has, I understand, been plagued with some of the issues that Councils dread - Legionella in the water supply system, floods, electrical failures related to floods and an on-going maintenance and building expenses bill far beyond what anyone envisaged when beaming at architects plans in halcyon days long ago.

Plus, to a visitor at least, it isn't immediately obvious where the entrance door is. I virtually circumnavigated it before finding it.

It's a leisure centre (housing 'the biggest indoor climbing-wall in Wiltshire'), ice rink (home to Swindon Wildcats ice hockey team), library (scarlet carpet tiles!) and community centre.

Yes, it does look like a waste incinerating facility, dockside warehouse or a bus depot maybe.
