No ... but I can see (from what I have heard of Maiden Newton) why it might look like that.

Sorry, no, but a good thought (and somewhere else on my list to look around one of these years!)

Hello - there isn't supposed to be a home page in this directory, so we're rather baffled as to how you got here but you're very welcome.

We provide training courses on Python, Perl, PHP, Tomcat, Java, MySQL, Linux and Tcl/Tk, with public classes held at our Melksham, Wiltshire, England training centre and private courses available on site throughout the UK▸ (United Kingdom) and the rest of Europe. For a longer course, we'll travel further afield too.

Please select this link to go to the main Well House Consultants home page.

Ah - you've been trying the old trick of taking the image name off the end of the URL for the image and seeing what the directory home page says, haven't you.    Thanks for the "plug" for my business  Grin Grin

And the image name is designed to be unhelpful too.

Next clue ... did you see this:

Nope ... but I can see your logic and there are some things that link this location to Corsham (and some that do not)
