EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the STEAM Museum of the GWR takes us back to Chippenham in the 1930s. As we gaze upon this historic image, we are transported to a time when life moved at a different pace. The view looks south east over the charming market town of Chippenham, offering us a glimpse into its bustling streets and architectural heritage. Taken from what appears to be the railway embankment, our eyes are immediately drawn to the array of buildings that still stand today on New Road and Foghamshire. These structures tell stories of bygone eras, their facades whispering tales of countless lives lived within their walls. In the distance, St Andrews church proudly stands as an emblematic symbol of faith and community. Its spire reaches towards the heavens, reminding us of Chippenham's rich history and spiritual roots. This print captures not only buildings but also memories frozen in time - moments shared between friends at local markets or families strolling through these very streets. It serves as a reminder that every town has its own unique story waiting to be discovered. As we admire this snapshot from yesteryear, let us appreciate how far Chippenham has come while cherishing its enduring charm and character. May it continue to thrive as both a vibrant market town and a testament to Wiltshire's cultural heritage for generations to come.
