The organisers of Wiltshire Farmers Market http://tinyurl.com/6a7gybb have indicated that they would be interested in running a market in Melksham if we can help them find somewhere to locate it. I'm not familiar with the back story behind this, but I rather suspect they've tried before and fallen foul of council red tape (maybe car parks can't be used because of the impact on the significant revenue stream the increased charges generate; maybe the market place can't be used because buses need somewhere to turn around now the town centre is permanently closed - I honestly don't know). It shouldn't be too difficult to come up with ideas for somewhere a few artisan food stalls might be set up on a regular basis though, and the introduction can only be good for Melksham, its people and its traders alike (increased footfall and all that). How about having some stalls lined up along some of the extra wide pavements we seem to be having foisted upon us in the town centre? Or how about in the grounds of the one of the larger properties located close to the town - the Melksham United Church front lawn springs to mind, as does Melksham House (and no I'm not looking at you, Wellhouse, since although the front lawns of the lovely Manor there in Spa Road would be ideal I'm very aware you have a business to run and parking needs to be available!). There must be somewhere though? Anyone?
