Maud's Way in Chippenham
Yelde Hall, The Shambles, Chippenham, Wiltshire, SN15 3HL
The Yelde Hall has stood in the town since at least the 15th Century, although a building may have been on the site even longer. In its time it has been a guildhall, council chamber, an armoury, a fire station, a jail, a bank, a Tourist Information Centre, as well as a museum, gallery and theatre. The Yelde has seen war, famine, recession and riots, as well as countless joyous occasions.
To celebrate the 550th anniversary of Maud Heath's Causeway Yesterday's Story CIC, along with partners The Wiltshire and Swindon History Centre, Chippenham Library and Chippenham Museum, have run talks, worked with writes groups, photography groups, walking groups, held an exhibition and composed a song to explore the lady behind the gift that created the causeway.
Join us to see what the community have learnt about Maud Heath and how she has been viewed throughout history.
