  Last week a Lacock Church was vandalised not long after it had undergone a £40,000 restoration project. The pre-medieval structure is a hub for the Lacock community and recently played a part in the Lacock Flower Festival before the vandalism took place. From letters to visits from locals and further afield, the community have shown their support for St Cyriac's Church in Lacock after the attack which left a number of windows...

  Last year I had no trick-or-treaters at my door and had to eat a bag full of miniature Mars Bars all to myself. Usually I wouldn't be complaining, but it's a bit sad when you don't get young people out enjoying Halloween like I used to. Did anyone in Corsham get kids knocking on their door for sweets? Do you like trick-or-treaters? There are always messages from Wiltshire Police about putting signs up to deter youngsters from...
