There are also regular traditional town markets. Places of interest in the local area are varied, with John Coles Park, the museum and Heritage Centre and Chippenham folk festival just a few examples.

Rail links are also good and Chippenham railway station features along the main line to London Paddington.

Waterford Place offers the level of freedom needed to maintain your independence for longer in your own home, living retirement to the full. It’s so easy to make new friends and to lead a busy and fulfilled life at Waterford Place; there are always plenty of regular activities to choose from including; coffee mornings, fitness classes, games and quiz nights, fish and chip supper evenings, themed events.
