is the Latin for 'anchor', this wonderfully sized home dates back
to the late 1940's. Set in an elevated position, this beautiful
home over looks a picturesque garden to the rear bordering the
River Marden. Extended to provide generous and well-proportioned
rooms, the property has also undergone refurbishment to include a
handmade bespoke 'Shaker' style kitchen/breakfast room, which has

DOUBLE sized bedrooms and a Laundry Room. The front is enclosed by

home.
Background Detail
Anchor Road was originally named Cow Lane and was later on renamed
after the Anchor Inn, which opened during the late 18th century.
The property was registered with the name 'Ancora House' - on 27th
January 2012 with the Wiltshire Council and Land registry.
The recreation ground opposite was opened in 1891, and provided by
Calne Borough Council funded by money given by the proprietor of
the Harris factory, Thomas Harris. So therefore it cannot be sold
for building.
