Creating better communities

Welcome to Wichelstowe.co.uk

Wichelstowe is a comprehensively planned, sustainable urban extension for Swindon.

Located to the north of the M4 between Junction 16 and Croft Road, Wichelstowe will include the following, set out across three neighbourhoods: East Wichel; Middle Wichel; and West Wichel:
  • Up to 4,500 new homes
  • Employment space
  • Public open space, including a country park
  • Shopping and community facilities for residents
  • 3 primary schools
The whole development is expected to be completed by around 2020. Contractors started work on site in May 2006 and primary infrastructure works for the whole site are now well underway. The first new homes at East Wichel were occupied in April 2009.
