Direct trains to Chippenham depart from Paddington, usually on the hour and half hour, taking about 1¼ hours (or a bit less) for the journey.

Since the first stop on most Paddington-to-Chippenham services is Reading (and you can't combine tickets unless the train stops at the point where one ticket's validity ends and the other one's starts), your Freedom Pass won't help you.
