About

Durrington & Bulford are neighbouring settlements on the eastern edge of Salisbury Plain. The area is characterised by military presence, with extensive barracks and training grounds shaping the landscape. Housing is primarily functional, serving the large garrison community. The open chalk downland of the plain defines the surrounding environment.

The area provides direct access to the vast, managed plain, with its network of byways and protected grassland. The presence of the army creates a distinct rhythm of life here, separate from the nearby historic city.
