The new street furniture has been installed in a bid to improve the high street.
Some new benches are attracting a lot of attention, with some members of the public mistaking them for toppled bins.
Wiltshire Council has spent £55,000 of its £16m share of the Future High Streets Fund on the new street furniture in Trowbridge town centre.In a statement, the council said: "We understand that new designs, particularly those with a contemporary look, can sometimes spark mixed reactions. "However, the vibrant bench seats and planters complement other recent enhancements such as the colourful bus shelters, and these have received positive feedback for transforming the appearance of the town centre.
