 During the 14th century, the manor of High Swindon was known as "Hegherswyndon".High Swindon has perhaps seen the least development of all the manors, remaining largely unchanged until the 19th century.During the period from 1086 onwards, the boundaries of High and West Swindon were re-arranged into Over and Nether Swindon, which became known as West and East Swindon in the 16th century.
