About

The Wylye Valley ward encompasses a stretch of the River Wylye in southern Wiltshire, characterised by chalk downland and water meadows. The area includes several villages such as South Newton, Stockton, and Wylye itself, which are connected by the A36 road. Agriculture remains a central activity, with mixed farming across the open landscape.

A notable feature is the presence of the former RAF Chilmark, a disused underground munitions storage facility within the chalk. The valley is also known for its fishing beats along the river. The terrain gently rises to the chalk escarpments of Grovely Wood to the south and the Salisbury Plain to the north.
