Trompe L'oeil, Roundstone Street
This may possibly be the largest trompe l'oeil in the country, and was installed on the blank wall of this building in Roundstone Street in October 2003 to commemorate the 25th anniversary of Trowbridge civic society. Work was carried out by artist Roger Smith and Wiltshire Steeplejacks.

The Polebarn Hotel, Trowbridge
On the corner of Polebarn Road and Roundstone Street, viewed from Church Street.
Built as Polebarn House, was first occupied in 1789 by John Clark, a local mill owner, and his family. The house, one of the few built with Bath Stone in Trowbridge, was designed as a display of his wealth and status. Last used as a private residence in 1920, it then had varying uses, such as offices and flats.
It was renamed The Polebarn Hotel in 1978.

The Black Pearl
One of Trowbridge's more colourful pubs, it is currently in trouble. A licensing application has been rejected from a prospective landlord, taking over from the previous. However, after some concern over the conduct and reputation here the councillors have turned it down. The pub has been closed for about a month but the bills have not stopped - doubts hang over the place now.

The White Swan
Take it as read - the pub is called the White Swan, despite the crossword-like incompletion. Interestingly enough, it is right next door to the Black Pearl, but appears to be able to offer some live music as an alternative. The skull and crossbones is actually a birthday greeting
