2009 : Roundabout at the eastern end of the Melksham bypass
There are people who don't like bypasses and climb trees and things to stop them being built, I'm not keen on them either but they make a big difference to life in places like Melksham.
We are looking out along the A365 to Sells Green and Martinslade where it joins the A361.
