About

Pewsey Vale East ward encompasses a rural portion of the Wiltshire countryside, centred around the villages of Milton Lilbourne and Wootton Rivers. The area is characterised by open farmland, quiet lanes, and the notable presence of the Kennet and Avon Canal, which provides a linear waterway for boating and walking. The landscape is largely agricultural, with fields and hedgerows defining the views towards the distant chalk downlands.

Community life is focused on the small villages, with local halls and pubs serving as social hubs. The area is traversed by the main railway line between London and the West Country, with the notable landmark of the Wootton Rivers brick railway viaduct marking the edge of the forest.
