Chippenham Information:

Chippenham is twinned with La Flèche in France and Friedberg in Germany. It was a royal vill, and probably a royal hunting lodge, under Alfred the Great. Chippenham lies 4 miles south of the M4 motorway, which links the town to Bristol, Swindon, South Wales and London. There are a number of other industrial sites around the town, Bumpers Farm being the largest. It is being electrified to make train times faster from London to the West Country.
