A recently completed mural has brought new life to a fish and chip shop amid plans to “spread colour” across the town.
Public Art Chippenham has completed its first installation, brought to life by muralist Ed Poster, on the side of Buckles fish and chip shop in Timber Street.
The mural pays tribute to the shop's location at the terminus of the old canal, as well as depicting Chippenham's historic role as a market town.
Buckles owner Steve Webb said: “It's a wonderful idea that brings to life the history here.
“We've had a massive, absolutely wonderful response, and so much positivity from our customers.”

Trustee Chris Lambert said: “We'd like to extend a huge thank you to The Arts Society Kington Langley, who funded this project.
“We have much more planned, including a competition for Chippenham artists, and an art auction to help raise money for our next projects. Keep an eye on our website for details.”
Those with ideas for more installations around the town, or suggestions for places that could be decorated, can contact Public Art Chippenham via the group’s website.
