Trowbridge Governance Review - Outcome

At the meeting of Wiltshire Council yesterday decisions were made on all of the proposals for boundary changes made by Trowbridge Town Council supported by Transforming Trowbridge as follows:

 ·         28 houses in Shore Place/Knigsley Place and Chepston Place on the Broadmead Estate should transfer from Wingfield to Trowbridge.

·         There should be no changes between Holt and Trowbridge at Ladydown Farm.
·         There should be no changes between Hilperton and Trowbridge at Wyke Road and through the Hilperton Gap.
·         259 houses, the pub, businesses, shops, Mead school and Community Centre in Paxcroft Mead to the South of the A361 and west of Ashton Road should transfer from Hilperton to Trowbridge.
·         105 houses in the Old Farm estate and the employment land north of the new Leap Gate extension, West Ashton Rd should transfer from West Ashton to Trowbridge.
·         There should be no changes between West Ashton and Trowbridge and between North Bradley and Trowbridge at The Ashton Park Urban extension, White Horse Business Park and Drynham Lane.

This last decision is very disappointing.  No doubt we will return to it another day
