About

Sherston ward encompasses a rural expanse in northwest Wiltshire, defined by rolling farmland and the small River Avon. The historic village of Sherston itself lies at its heart, with stone-built properties lining its main street. The area is primarily agricultural, with fields and woodlands shaping the landscape. Several smaller hamlets and isolated farmsteads are scattered throughout the parish, connected by narrow country lanes.

The community is centred around the village, with its notable church featuring a Saxon-era rood stair. Local governance is maintained through a parish council. The economy remains connected to the land, though many residents commute to larger towns for employment. The ward's quiet character is anchored by its ancient settlement history and ongoing agricultural traditions.
