Top of the stack
The chimney of the former milk factory now offers plenty of variety, from the green to the high tech. Incidentally, Melksham's name is thought to be derived from the Old English 'meolc' - meaning milk.

Dye House chimney
So called because the site was once dye works. The chimney was built in 1903 for Wilts United Dairies who had moved to the site. The chimney was reduced to one-third of its former height in the 1990s and is now used for mobile phone antenna.
