Walking on foot to Swindon Central station (10)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

paddington

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'central station' is the definition.
'paddington' can be an answer for 'station' (train station in London). I'm not certain of the 'central' bit.

'walking on foot to swindon' is the wordplay.
'walking' becomes 'padding' (padding is a kind of walking).
'on' becomes 'to'.
'foot' suggests the final letters (I've seen 'foot of' mean this).
The last letter of 'swindon' is 'n'.
'padding'+'to'+'n'='PADDINGTON'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for paddington that I've seen before include "A figure child might want for Play" , "London station - famous bear" , "London rail terminus" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
