* Description of the function of the points (ie, Up Main to Up Goods)
* Interlocking area
* Method of control - motorised, ground frame, sprung, etc
* Date commissioned
* Date controlled onto Swindon Panel (if the interlocking pre-dates the panel)
* Date taken out of use
* (If dates not available, then dates known to be in existence, or not in existence)

For signals:

* Description of the location (miles and chains)
* Description of the profile of the signal:
** Aspects
** Junction indicators
** Route indicators
