Top tips for a Trowbridge Home Buyers Survey
Trowbridge is a large market town in Wiltshire and its history stretches back to at least the 10th century.
Its town centre is full of 18th century buildings erected by wealthy clothiers. Architectural historian Nikolaus Pevsner famously described the town centre as a 'row of palaces'. Some of those palatial 18th century exteriors are facades covering earlier 16th-17th century houses.

There are also a number of Victorian period survivals of various sizes. The town also has much housing constructed in the 20th century and up to the present date, both municipal and private.
New build developments include the semi-detached houses in Elmhurst Gardens, the detached houses around Hilperton and flats in Roundstone Mews, near the town's centre.

Properties in Trowbridge built in the close vicinity of the River Biss and Paxcroft Brook, in streets such as Ashton Road and Old Farm Road, are in an area where flood warnings and alerts are issued from time to time. If you are concerned that a property you are looking to buy is in a flood risk area, you should consider getting a flood risk report (click for more details). | Some properties in Trowbridge may be located in an area which is subject to a Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL). A recent local authority search for a property in Market Place, Melksham revealed that it was within a CIL area. The Community Infrastructure Levy is a planning charge, introduced by the Planning Act 2008 as a tool for local authorities in England and Wales to help deliver infrastructure to support the development of their area. It came into force on 6 April 2010 through the Community Infrastructure Levy Regulations 2010. Development may be liable for a charge under the Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL), if your local planning authority has chosen to set a charge in its area.
