Places of interest in Andover, SP10
Andover, HampshireAndover remained a small market town. Processing wool appears to have been the main industry and street names in the area of the town known as Sheep Fair commemorate this. A weekly market, and an annual fair were held.Upper ClatfordLocal attractions are a number of traditionally thatched cottages and houses including the premises of the local public house The Crook & Shears. Following the road south out of the village leads to the twin village of Goodworth Clatford (formerly Lower Clatford).WiltshireThe ceremonial county of Wiltshire consists of two unitary authority areas, Wiltshire and Swindon, governed respectively by Wiltshire Council and Swindon Borough Council.TrowbridgeFrom the 13th century onwards Trowbridge developed a clothing industry, increasingly becoming industrialised from the 17th century onwards. However increasing mechanisation was resisted by workers in traditional trades and there were riots in 1785, 1792 and in the era of luddism due to the introduction of the flying shuttle.[6]Thomas Helliker, a shearman's apprentice, became one of the martyrs of the Industrial Revolution in 1803 when he was hanged at Salisbury. Nevertheless at one point in 1820 Trowbridge was being described as the "Manchester of the West" as it had over 2,000 wool-producing factories, comparable to Northern industrial towns such as Rochdale.[7] The wool industry declined in the late 19th century with the advent of ring-spinning and this decline continued throughout the 20th century. The last mill, Salter's Home Mill, closed in 1982 and is now the home of Trowbridge Museum,[8] integrated into The Shires Shopping Centre. Clark's Mill is now home to offices and the County Court; straddling the nearby River Biss is "The Handle House", formerly used for drying and storage of teazles used to raise the nap of cloth. This is one of very few such buildings still known to exist in the United Kingdom.[9]Trowbridge railway stationRegular service (at present half-hourly each way Mon-Sat, hourly on Sundays) is provided by First Great Western to Bath, Bristol Temple Meads and either Gloucester or Cardiff Central northbound and Weymouth or Southampton and Portsmouth in the south.Information by Wikipedia.com
