Dancing on an old factory site
Wincanton has long been associated with the milk industry, having this site as the focus for the business. Cow and Gate were the main employer in the twentieth century and built a large factory and office complex here on The Tythings. However, industry changes have brought about the closure and the site is being run down. A few small opportunist firms have used some of the redundant units but they will have to go soon.
The site will be converted to residential use and a large project is in hand. The new name for it will be Dancing Green.

Wincanton Community Church
The building is recognisable as a cinema; it was opened on 22nd November, 1934, and prospered for a few decades. However, it fell out of favour and by 1970 it was used as a bingo club. That venture also faltered over time, the building reverting to films and then back to bingo in a series of hopeful changes. Sadly, the curtain lowered and the church took over in 1999.
