Trowbridge Museum tells the story of the town, its residents,
as well as the impact of the woollen cloth trade and industrial
revolution. Through fascinating objects, unique textile
related machinery and wonderful images, learn how the town
developed from medieval times as a Magna Carta Baron town,
to a prominent mill town, eventually producing West of England
Cloth which was sought after across the world.

A church has stood on this site for nearly eight hundred
years and St Thomas’s has always been the church of
the City and Guilds of Salisbury.
Our recently restored ‘Doom’ painting above the chancel arch is the largest
and most complete example still surviving in the UK, painted between 1470
and 1500.
Visitors will also enjoy the strikingly modern altar table, built by local
craftsman Matthew Burt, and created as part of a larger and ongoing project
to reorder, repair and restore this wonderful church.
St Thomas’s is part of the Inclusive Church initiative, which means that we
are committed to ensuring that all are truly welcome, whatever their story.
There are services held daily (except Saturdays) – do join us if you can.
