[edit] Features
Corsham's small town centre includes the Martingate Centre, a late 20th century retail development, which also houses offices and a small teaching facility for Wiltshire College, a further education institution.
The stately home of Corsham Court can also be found in the town centre. Standing on a former Saxon Royal Manor, it is based on an Elizabethan manor home from 1582. Since 1745, it has been part of the Methuen estate. The house has an extensive collection of Old Masters, rooms furnished by Robert Adam and Thomas Chippendale, and parks landscaped by Capability Brown and Humphry Repton. The house is open to the public all year round excluding December and is famed locally for its collection of peacocks. [1] The owner of Corsham Court in the mid-seventeenth century was the commander of the Parliamentarian New Model Army in Wiltshire. His wife built what came to be known as the Hungerford Almshouses in the centre of town. These famous almshouses were recently featured on the BBC's Restoration television series.
The eastern portal of Box Tunnel, in which Isambard Kingdom Brunel pioneered tunnelling techniques for the Great Western Railway, is on the western edge of the town. Corsham is the site of the disused entrance to Tunnel Quarry, which used to be visible off Pockeredge Drive.
