About
Join us on a tour to explore areas of the historical Neeld and Town Hall, which are usually off-limits. Learn about our fascinating history and find out more about our namesake Joseph Neeld, and the building's architecture.
Delve into the secret corners of the Neeld and Town Hall to discover behind-the-scenes areas such as the tech booth, backstage and Mayor's Parlour. Our free guided tour will tell you more about the fascinating history of our buildings, their architect James Thomson, and our namesake and benefactor, Joseph Neeld.
The Neeld has played several different roles in the heart of the Chippenham community, including a Cheese Market and a WWI Hospital. Following a refurbishment project in 2015, the Neeld is a thriving Community and Arts Centre with an exciting programme of professional shows and local groups' activities. The Town Hall was built in the Neoclassical style and opened in 1834. The building remains the civic heart of the town and the home of Chippenham Town Council.
