Two Melksham residents who gave their lives in the world wars are being honoured in the town hall’s museum space.
One cabinet features a photo of Private Ernest Missen, who was killed on 9th April 1917, and another highlights Gunner Claude Merchant, who was killed on 10th January 1945.
There is also a photo of VE Day celebrations outside the town hall in May 1945.
Viewing is available during town hall opening hours until early December.
