Trowbridge: Museums, Exhibitions & Discounts

Trowbridge is the county town of Wiltshire, located in the west of England. The town has a rich industrial heritage, particularly in the wool and textile industry, which shaped its development from medieval times through the Industrial Revolution.

Once known as "The Manchester of the West" due to its numerous cloth mills, Trowbridge retains much of its industrial architecture, with several historic mill buildings still standing today. The town center features notable examples of 18th and 19th-century architecture, including the Town Hall.

While its textile industry has declined, Trowbridge maintains its role as an important administrative and cultural center for the region. The town's heritage is preserved and celebrated at the Trowbridge Museum, which tells the story of its textile industry and local history.
