The western end of the station extends into this square. This view looks down the line in the direction of Melksham and Bath. Considering it is crossing the northern side of the town centre, the line looks quite sylvan. Brunel's 1841 viaduct beneath is grade II* listed http://www.britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/en-462388-railway-viaduct-chippenham .
