It is slightly curious though.
Highworth still is a separate village to Swindon, and is about 7 miles away from the long-gone Swindon Railway Works. Even in the old days when many people walked miles to work, this seems a long way out of the town. But it would have been far nicer to live out there, than smokey and noisy Swindon Town itself. Highworth is rather posh today.
The
whole of new-Swindon consided of a huge Railway Works and the Worker's houses built on green fields. (Think of:- Lancashire Mill towns, or even Milton-Keynes

) The original Swindon was a tiny agricultural village on the top of a hill to the south, and is now known as Old-Town.
I could believe a place called Highworth Street, Swindon, full of railway workers, but not Highworth village. I could be wrong.
