For many years now, we've been inviting visitors to our website to add their own memories to share their experiences of life as it was, prompted by the photographs in our archive. Here are some from Melksham
Sparked a Memory for you?
If this has sparked a memory, why not share it here?
I am trying to find some photographs and/or information re the dairy manager's house in Shurnhold, I believe it was a Co-Op dairy and that the house was not only the manager's accommodation but also partly a shop. Above the main entrance (front door) is the date 1886, although I believe that the original part of the building is older. Any information or photos at all would be gratefully received, thanks in advance.
