If you started your time in the forces on a training course at RAF Melksham, or if you've lived (or perhaps still do) on Bowerhill, you'll want to get hold of a copy of the Bowerhill Villager 2006 Calendar. 12 big photospreads showing the history of Bowerhill from the Royal Air Force days through to the current time. From pictures of the Hawker Hunter that used to be at the gate (that's the aircraft that held the speed record for the fastest flight at one time) through maps then and now to school term dates and even the refuse collection calendar.
Just £5.99 from Lisa - email her on
lisa@wellho.net, call her on 01225 708225, or write to her at 404, The Spa, Melksham, SN12 6QL ... even pop by and knock on the door - we're one of the big houses behind "The Spa" roundabout and you KNOW you've always wanted to peep inside. All profits go to the production and distribution costs for the
Bowerhill Villager which is distributed to around 1600 homes on Bowerhill monthly.
We've also got more (modern) pictures of
Bowerhill and
Melksham on this web site.
