COMPLETE Place name has me boggled

Hi Guys,
The handwriting does appear clear enough, However, as I read it, this place, Surudoi, does not appear to exist in England. Am I maybe reading this wrong? The year is 1913.
Thanks in advance.

Hmm,
Two Swindons, now that throws a wrench in the works. I will have to see where the Manfield family is. Specifically a Joseph Manfield.
Thanks for the heads up
