A 400ft (122m-high) industrial chimney that has dominated the Wiltshire skyline for decades is to be demolished in September, it has been announced.
The Westbury cement works were constructed in the early 1960s and mothballed in 2009.
The chimney will be "brought down by controlled explosion" on 18 September at about 06:45 BST, site owners Tarmac said.
The demolition marks the end of over 40 years of cement production at the site.
