Keevil is a village and civil parish in Wiltshire, England, about 4 miles (6 km) east of the centre of Trowbridge and a similar distance south of Melksham.

A settlement of 42 households at Chivele was recorded in the Domesday Book of 1086, when the land was held by Ernulf de Hesdin.

[4] His son, also Ernulf, held the manor in 1130; it passed through various hands until it was sold in 1560 by Henry, Earl of Arundel to Richard Lambert, a grocer of London.

[3] These were on the Semington Brook, one at Gayford (upstream of Bulkington near the present Mill Farm) and the other near Baldham Bridge (in the northeast of Keevil parish).

A school was built in the village in 1868, at the expense of Mrs Chamberlaine, the vicar's wife, and by 1894 was also attended by children from Bulkington.

The school gained voluntary controlled status in 1950, and continues as Keevil Church of England Academy.

[9] The church was extended and enlarged in the 15th and early 16th centuries, when the south aisle was added; the building was restored in the 1860s and c. 1910.

A red brick chapel was built in 1833 in the northeast of Keevil village,[19] to which a Sunday schoolroom was added in 1901.

Two stories and an attic are faced with limestone ashlar at the four-gabled front, while a central two-storey porch of 1611 carries Tuscan columns.
