Trowbridge
Trowbridge is the county town of Wiltshire and many of the buildings are testimony to its prosperity as a 15th century cloth town.
The last working mill in the town is now a museum which tells the story of the industry in Trowbridge.
Visitors can see working textile looms and the museum shop even produces its own work for sale.
The inventor of shorthand, Sir Issac Pitman, is Trowbridge's most famous son and there's some information on him in the museum.  
The area is also well known for the number of crop circles which have appeared in the fields. Whether man-made or more mysterious, they attract thousands of people to Wiltshire every year as newer and more intricate shapes appear as if by magic.
