Have to see if I can find a copy of that - very rare to get anything write on Melksham (that's why I've had to write so much over the years  ;) ) and this has appeared from left field - looks like a long article too ...

I like front and back cover illustrations too - one from in front and one from behind, per chance?

As an aside I have been a fan of this publication since it was first brought out.

Sadly it has been pointed out to me that after quarter of a century it is to cease regular publication later this year.
