Corsham
Civic Society was founded in 1963 to represent the people of Corsham in all
aspects of conservation, preservation and the promotion of this delightful
Wiltshire town.
The
Society is a registered Charity, a member of the Civic Trust and ASHTAV
(Association of Small Historic Towns & Villages of the UK).
It is our aim to
promote high standards of planning and architecture, to create a wider awareness
amongst the local population of environmental issues, the geography, history,
natural history and architecture of the area, and to secure the preservation,
protection and improvement of features of public amenity and/or historical
interest, both in Corsham and in the surrounding countryside.
Our overall purpose is to engender pride in our town and to
contribute towards the vitality and well-being of Corsham’s residents and that
of its neighbouring villages
The Society holds monthly meetings and talks at the Pound Centre,
Pound Pill, Corsham, at which everyone is most welcome to attend. A programme of
these meetings is available at the Tourist Information and Heritage Centre, High
Street, Corsham, or by contacting any of the officers listed herein.
