About

The Avon Valley ward encompasses a largely rural expanse in eastern Wiltshire, centred on the River Avon and its tributaries. The area includes several villages such as Durrington, Bulford, and Figheldean, alongside significant areas of military land associated with the Salisbury Plain Training Area. The landscape is characterised by chalk downland, river meadows, and areas of woodland, with agriculture playing a key role in the local economy.

A notable feature is the presence of ancient sites, including the Stonehenge Cursus and numerous Bronze Age barrows, which dot the chalk uplands. The ward's settlements often have a close connection to the military, with substantial housing for service personnel. The River Avon itself provides a consistent watercourse through this part of the county, influencing the pattern of settlement and land use.
