IMPORTANT Action Required

There is a threat to the existence of your village as you know it. Wiltshire Council is conducting a boundary review and proposes to give large chunks of the village to Trowbridge Town Council.

They have asked for the fields between Woodmarsh and the town and for Drynham dwellings to transfer to Trowbridge. You must campaign to stop this
happening or risk losing the integrity of the village as you know it.

See notice as to how you can take action.
