The civil parish of Nythe is an eastern suburb of the town of Swindon, Wiltshire, in England.

Contents

Geography

Dorcan Way forms the north and east boundaries of the parish. To the west is Swindon Rugby Football Club, with Greenbridge industrial estate beyond (in Stratton St Margaret parish). To the south is the boundary of the former municipal borough of Swindon, which partly follows the course of the Dorcan Stream.

History

The Ordnance Survey map of 1948 shows the area as farmland. In the 1960s, as part of Swindon's eastward expansion, the entire area became a privately built housing estate.

Following a Community Governance Review in 2013, Nythe obtained independence from Stratton St Margaret, becoming a new parish in its own right with effect from 1 April 2015.

Amenities

The parish has a community centre, a primary school and Nyland Campus, a primary school for children with special needs. The local secondary school is Dorcan Academy on the other side of Dorcan Way, in Covingham.
