The Old War Memorial Hall Lyneham is
located on the A3102 Calne Road at Church End. Ordnance
Survey Grid reference: SU 024 787. The hall was built
soon after the First World War as a war memorial,
with
a roll of honour displayed inside. The first use of
the building was as a Lad's
Club.
The hall managed by a board of trustees and is now
let to Wiltshire County Council for use as a library.
In the library is the turnpike toll board, giving
all
the charges for different animals and conveyances,
from the toll house at Lyneham Green.
Do you know any other village bygones, facts or hold images of the past, what the building was used for, who visited it, or do you you have a tale to tell with the life in Lyneham.
If so please let us know so we can fill in the missing
bygones of the village and share it with everyone else.
