Etchilhampton

Etchilhampton is a small village and civil parish in Wiltshire, England, in the Vale of Pewsey 3 miles (4.8 km) east of Devizes.

[4] The village grew along both sides of a street, with the church near the middle; after houses in the central section fell into disuse, by 1885 that part of the street had been reduced to a footpath, and today the village continues as two distinct settlements.

[3] Manor Farmhouse, a Grade II* listed two-storey timber framed building, is from the early 16th century.

A few years later a monument – a stone plinth bearing a seated lion – was erected by the turning for Etchilhampton in memory of James Long of Wedhampton, who had promoted the new road.

It is in the area of Wiltshire Council unitary authority, which is responsible for most significant local government functions.
