West Ashton crossroads
A view of the A350 (running left to right) where the minor road from Trowbridge to Bratton crosses it at a traffic light controlled junction. The gateposts below the trees at left of centre mark the entrance drive to Rood Ashton Hall which dates from 1808. However, most of the hall was demolished in the late 70's, leaving one part remaining as a private residence.
The name is also preserved on the GWR Hall class steam locomotive '4965'which is still in use for railtours.
