Devizes is a thriving historic market town in the centre of Wiltshire. 

The first Devizes castle, built by Osmund, Bishop of Salisbury in 1080, is said to have been built on the boundary line between 3 Saxon parishes and the name Devizes is said to derive from the Latin “ad devisas” meaning “at the boundaries”.

There is a wide range of independent shops and a busy regular market held each Thursday and Saturday in the central Market Place and many other visitor attractions such as the Wiltshire Museum,  and Caen Hill locks on the Kennet and Avon Canal.

The town provides a focal hub for the surrounding villages of All Cannings, Bishops Cannings, Easterton, Erlestoke, Etchilhampton, Market Lavington, Marston, Potterne, Roundway, Rowde, Stert, Urchfont, West Lavington and Worton
