Melksham, Market town in Wiltshire, England.
Located on the banks of the River Avon, Melksham extends across both sides of the waterway with residential areas surrounding its central business district.
The settlement, recorded in the Domesday Book, grew from an agricultural community into a textile manufacturing center during the Industrial Revolution period.
The annual Food and River Festival brings together local producers, craftspeople, and musicians, transforming the town center into an open-air celebration.
The railway station on the Wessex Main Line connects travelers to major cities, while the A350 provides direct road access to Chippenham and Trowbridge.
The Conigre Mead Nature Reserve contains wetland habitats next to the town center, providing a natural environment for local wildlife species.
