Figheldean /faɪlˈdiːn/ is a village and civil parish on the River Avon, 3+1⁄2 miles (6 km) north of Amesbury in Wiltshire, England.

Figheldean is situated on Salisbury Plain, which supports many nationally rare species and is the largest area of unimproved chalk grassland in northern Europe.

Prehistoric sites in the parish include Robin Hood's Ball, a Neolithic causewayed enclosure in the far west of the parish; and Barrow Clump, an early Bronze Age bowl barrow near Ablington.

[3] The church at Figheldean is first mentioned in Henry I's 1115 charter granting its lands and revenues to the cathedral at Old Sarum.

[1] A National School was built in Figheldean in 1859, with land and building costs provided by the local gentry.

[4] From 1898, downland on both sides of the river valley was bought for military use, and remains in Ministry of Defence ownership as part of the Salisbury Plain Training Area.

During World War II, Syrencot was the residence of Lt-Gen "Boy" Browning, and later became the headquarters of the 6th Airborne Division under General Richard Gale, who was responsible for planning Operation Tonga in support of the Normandy landings.

[15][16] The Officers' Mess and Quarters built in 1914 at Airfield Camp are within the parish and are Grade II* listed.

Founded as Tourist Coaches in the village in 1920 to provide services for military establishments, the business is now part of the Go-Ahead Group.
