    Calne Facts – Did you know…

    1. Calne Down!
      If the name confuses you, it’s pronounced “karn”, as in, “I karn’t work out how to pronounce it.”.
    2. Woollen Town
      Like much of Wiltshire, the town thrived in the 19th century, producing cloth and textiles.
    3. No-castle
      There are several street names linked to a castle, there’s a Castle Hill, even the town’s coat of arms features a castle, but strangely there’s no evidence a castle ever existed.
    4. “…and it’s goodnight from Pym.”
      During the English Civil War, local MP John Pym very publicly opposed the King. After his death in 1643, Pym was buried with great ceremony at Westminster Abbey. When the monarchy was restored in 1660, Pym was dug up and thrown in a ditch!
    5. Big Heads
      Three notable noggins to have come from Calne include the poet Samuel Taylor Coleridge, scientist Joseph Priestley, who discovered oxygen while working at Bowood House and Jan Ingenhousz who discovered photosynthesis, also while working at Bowood.
    6. Bringing Home
      During the 1770s local landowners the Harris family founded a successful bacon curing business, at its height employing over 1,700 people. The company’s success made Wiltshire Ham famous. A piggy statue now stands in their honour.
