The asset was previously listed twice also under the parish of Semington at List entry 1252241. This entry was removed from the List on 6 May 2026.
This entry was subject to a Minor Amendment on 6 May 2026 to add details from the de-listed duplicate list entry; “engineering brick”, “with no inscription” and “on each side”. The dates for the construction of this part of the canal were corrected. Additional address of “High Street” was added. Spelling of Melksham corrected. The GIS triangle depiction was moved slightly from ST8967960946 to ST8967960944, thus placing it on the parish boundary between Semington and Melksham Without which passes through the building. The grid reference was removed from the Details text.
