The sixth in Cv's series of English County Guides explores the county of Wiltshire. The dramatic sweep of the spare landscape towards the Pewsey Vale introduces the historic town of Marlborough. The guide explores over 180 villages, and follows the route towards the West, to Bath and Avon; taking in the historic Jacobean settlements of Trowbridge,Melksham, Calne, Devizes and Bradford on Avon. Wiltshire is beautiful and mysterious, spanned by lay lines and runic landmarks such as Stonehenge and the Avebury Ring. This is an original account of personal experience, fascinating for visitors and tempting to those seeking a new area to live. First researched from 1999-2001, then in 2011, the series of English County Guides provides descriptions of market towns and villages, for casual visitors and those interested in moving to a different area. The guides contain eye-witness records of natural character, of the villages: their properties, amenities, communication.
