Welcome to Chippenham
Chippenham is one of the West Country's most dynamic market
towns with a population of over 40,000. The combination of the old
and the new, the historic architectural gems, modern shopping
centres and nearness to some of the country's greatest houses and
historic villages, makes this town midway between Bath and Swindon
an ideal location for living, working and visiting.
Where is Chippenham?
Chippenham is set on a prominent crossing of the River Avon and
lies between the Malborough Downs to the East, the Cotswolds to the
North and West and Salisbury Plain to the South. Surrounding the
town are a number of stone-built villages, including Lacock
(National Trust), Biddestone and Castle Combe. The great house and
art treasures of Longleat, Bowood, Lacock Abbey, Sheldon Manor and
Corsham Court are within easy reach.
