Corsham is a historic market town on the southwestern edge of the Cotswolds, just off the A4 national route, which was formerly the main turnpike road from London to Bristol, between Bath and Chippenham.

It offers an excellent range of amenities including primary schools, a secondary school, Springfield community campus which includes a library and a sports centre with swimming pool. The Pound Arts Centre is the hub of Corsham's creative & culture offerings, with three annual seasons of professional performances, film, participatory arts events and exhibitions. The picturesque high street has a variety of independent shops, galleries, cafes & public houses, and contains several notable historic buildings, such as the stately home of Corsham Court with its stunning parkland. More comprehensive shopping and leisure facilities are available in the World Heritage City of Bath (c. 9 miles), which has a mainline railway station with fast access to London Paddington as does nearby Chippenham (c. 4miles). Junctions 16 and 17 of the M4 motorway are within easy reach, providing an ideal commuting distance to Bristol, Swindon and London.

Corsham was historically a centre for agriculture and later the wool industry and remains a focus for quarrying Bath stone. It is also home to a major administrative and manufacturing centre for the Ministry of Defence, with numerous establishments both above ground and in the old quarry tunnels.

The town enjoys a frequent role in the film industry, with its picturesque high street providing an ideal location for many major film and television productions, and with a thriving weekly market, and Corsham Court's resident peacocks wandering the streets, it is a wonderful town to make your home.
