EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage print captures the serene beauty of River Avon in Chippenham, dating back to the 1930s. The view looks northwest along the river, showcasing the charming market town nestled on its banks. To the left of the photograph, a row of cottages known as Common Slip adds character and history to this picturesque scene. The cottages exude a quaint charm with their rustic architecture and well-tended gardens. They stand as a testament to Chippenham's rich heritage and provide a glimpse into life during that era. However, it is worth noting that these houses no longer exist today, making this photograph even more valuable for those interested in local history. The tranquil river flows gracefully through the town, reflecting its surroundings like a mirror. Its gentle current invites visitors to take leisurely strolls along its banks or perhaps indulge in some fishing activities. The lush greenery lining both sides of River Avon adds an element of natural beauty to this idyllic setting. Chippenham itself radiates warmth and vitality with its bustling market atmosphere captured in this snapshot from yesteryears. It serves as a reminder of how communities thrived around such riverside towns where trade flourished amidst scenic landscapes. Preserved at STEAM Museum of GWR (Great Western Railway), this print offers viewers an enchanting window into Chippenham's past – an invitation to explore and appreciate Wiltshire's timeless charm embodied by River Avon and its historic market town ambiance.
