Old Road Tavern - Chippenham
The Old Road Tavern, Chippenham is a friendly locals pub where we go after practice. They support various aspects of folk all year round.
The previous landlady and landlord, Chris & Mick, built a really good folk reputation and made the pub garden quite an oasis in the town. New man in charge is Lindsey who, we are happy to say, has kept up the good work and still has bands and supports local dance teams.
