About

Wilton ward encompasses the historic market town of Wilton along with surrounding rural settlements and farmland. The area is defined by the River Wylye flowing through its centre, with water meadows extending along the valley. The urban core features Georgian and Victorian architecture radiating from its central square. Agriculture remains a visible part of the local landscape, with fields and country lanes connecting the smaller hamlets to the main town.

A notable site is Wilton House, a grand English country house with extensive landscaped grounds, which has been the seat of the Earls of Pembroke for centuries. The local economy includes traditional industries like carpet manufacturing, which has been associated with the town for generations. The area maintains a distinct character separate from the nearby city of Salisbury, with its own weekly market and community events.
