About

Kingshill and Okus sit in the northern part of Swindon, within Wiltshire and close to the town’s built-up edge. The area is mainly residential, with a mix of housing from different decades, small shopping parades, primary schools and community organisations that serve local needs. Regular bus services link the neighbourhood to Swindon town centre and the main railway station, while street patterns and local allotments give the area a settled, suburban feel.

Okus falls within the old parish of Stratton St Margaret and its name appears on historic maps of the locality. Kingshill occupies slightly higher ground, which influenced the street layout and some property plots. Open spaces, playing fields and a few community halls provide places for sport and meetings, and small commercial clusters along main roads supply everyday services. Local groups and parish activities remain prominent in community life, reflecting long-standing ties rather than large, council-led projects.
