New Road runs in front of Harris's bacon factory. Nearer the camera is the terminus of the Calne branch of the Wilts & Berks Canal, still in water in 1920. At one time coal would have been shipped here from places such as Paulton and Timsbury on the Somersetshire Coal Canal. The two narrow-boat canals were linked by a third, major canal - the Kennet & Avon

My secondary modern and 6th form grammar school were in this town. Harris' was a major employer at the time - 1962 - 1968

The site of the Harris Bacon Factory is now a public carpark, which modern housing. The small Gothic style building to the immediate right of the factory is now Calne's Heritage Centre
