Hotel Bythesea, Trowbridge.
A bit strange, since Trowbridge is a good 30 miles from the nearest briny.
The Hotel takes its name from Bythesea Road, on which it stands. The road takes its name from Henry Bythesea, who built a housing development here, at the beginning of the nineteenth century.
Since I first visited, some 30-odd years ago, the building has been renamed; Bythesea Lodge.

Inch Forward. Start. Stop.
@trowbridgemuseum has a great collection of historic machinery associated with the local weaving industries. How could I resist these buttons?

Yesterday I spent some time at Trowbridge Museum in Wiltshire beginning to plan some visual poetry workshops for young people which I’m going to be running next year using an extensive herbarium collected by poet and botanist George Crabbe who was Rector of St James’ Church (where he’s buried) until 1832. A beautiful and amazing archive. #GeorgeCrabbe #Herbarium #Trowbridge #wiltshire #archive #research #LocalHistory #TrowbridgeMuseum
