Heritage in Wiltshire

Wiltshire is one of England’s most historic counties, with landmarks that attract visitors from across the world and provide an extraordinary backdrop for everyday life.

The county is home to the world-famous Stonehenge and Avebury Stone Circle, both UNESCO World Heritage Sites that anchor Wiltshire’s ancient past in its sweeping chalk landscapes. Beyond prehistory, the medieval splendour of Salisbury Cathedral, with its soaring spire and Magna Carta, offers cultural richness at the heart of the county. Historic market towns such as Marlborough, Devizes and Malmesbury are filled with Georgian architecture, medieval streets and traditional markets that have thrived for centuries. Villages like Lacock and Castle Combe are preserved in time, often used as filming locations thanks to their quintessential English charm.

For those moving to Wiltshire, these landmarks are part of the fabric of daily life.

Testimonials

Here is what recent clients have had to say about our agents in Wiltshire. 

Quote Mark

Tom Stourton and Tim Barker did the most spectacular job for us. They talked our language; they were available 24 hours a day without complaint; they put up with wobbles and changes of mind; they were consistently patient and charming. I really cannot fault them. Anyone who needs a house in the West Country should use them. They are both expert at what they do but in many ways very different people. Perhaps that is their secret. They complement each other extraordinarily well.

We thoroughly recommend Richard Waters to anyone looking in the Bath area. We asked Richard to help us as we were increasingly aware that the most desirable properties were being bought off-market. Richard’s advice was always thoughtful, astute and informed, particularly around pricing. His knowledge is first-rate and the result of detailed awareness of the Bath market. On a personal level, he was always positive, available and responsive – a complete professional and a pleasure to work with.  We would advise anyone looking for a home in Bath, that a successful outcome is far more likely with Richard’s guidance, unparalleled expertise and support.
