SWINDON is well-known for its roundabouts. The most famous of them all, the Magic Roundabout, is often discussed in hushed tones by road enthusiasts on the other side of the pond. It has received global recognition after being featured in the top 12 roundabouts in the world and has appeared in countless calendars compiled by the National Roundabout Appreciation Society.
But we think the quirky landmark has been given a hard time, and there are in fact, other far more hated roundabouts in the town.
Here’s our list of roundabouts that really get our goat. But please, if you disagree, let us know yours below.
1. High Street/ Newport Street/ Marlborough Road roundabout
2. Kingshill roundabout
3. Mannington roundabout
4. Moonrakers roundabout
5. Farmfoods roundabout, outside Rodbourne Cheney Primary School
6. Greenbridge roundabout
7. Bruce Street Bridges
8. Transfer Bridges
