There's a public footpath beside our HQ ...

Melksham is a market town in Wiltshire ... it's home to our Open Source training centre, and what better to do on a summer evening than walk some of the byways and tracks that criss-cross the fields.


Setting out on a walk over the fields

On warm summers evenings, you can sometimes see hot air balloons here - see out Ballooning page for pictures we took of a balloon landing in this very field


The view back to our training centre


There is a variety of stiles on the paths

The path crosses the Clackers Brook

Clackers Brook can be followed to where it crossed the the Wilts and Berks Canal in Melksham's outskirts


Walking up towards Snarleton Lane

At the top of Snarleton Lane is "The Forresters" where you can enjoy a pint and (until 8 p.m.) a meal. The walk back - perhaps taking another route over the fields or perhaps through the town.

See also Nearmelksham, Devizes and Canal for other things to do very nearby after a hard day's learning.
