Referring to "Views sought" in the Gazette & Herald (letters, 18/12/03), I would like to comment as follows a nickname, never.
If one studied the history of days gone by, they would discover that the Malmesbury town clock and bell tower is all that remains of St Paul's Church that was outside the abbey. Hence the council outside Malmesbury has always been known as Parish of St Paul's Malmesbury Without.
