Patney is a small village and civil parish in Wiltshire, England, in the Vale of Pewsey about 4.5 miles (7.2 km) south-east of Devizes.
Patney had a church since the 12th century, St Swithin's, which was rebuilt in 1878, closed in 1992, and became a private residence in 1996.
[2] The ecclesiastical parish was united with the benefice of Chirton with Marden in 1963,[3] and today is within the area of the Cannings and Redhorn Team Ministry which covers a group of eight churches in the Vale of Pewsey.
[4] All significant local government services are provided by Wiltshire Council, with its headquarters in Trowbridge, and the parish is represented there by Paul Oatway.
There was a station where the road to All Cannings crossed the line; it was closed when local services were withdrawn in 1966.
