About

Taunton Wilton is a residential suburb situated just south of Taunton's town centre, bordering the River Tone. The area is characterised by a mix of post-war housing estates, local schools, and community amenities, providing a practical base for commuters and families. The presence of the Tone shapes the area's eastern boundary, offering some green corridors alongside the waterway.

The district is anchored by the Wilton area, which includes a large retail park featuring supermarkets and chain stores, serving as a significant local shopping hub. Taunton's main hospital is located here, alongside several light industrial and business parks. This creates a functional landscape where residential streets sit adjacent to commercial and service infrastructure, defining the area's primarily utilitarian character.
