  • Addendum to School Places Strategy 2017-2022 – Explanation of the Differences Between Wiltshire Community Areas and Wiltshire School Planning Areas
    Addendum to School Places Strategy 2017-2022 – Explanation of the differences between Wiltshire Community Areas and Wiltshire School Planning Areas This document should be read in conjunction with the School Places Strategy 2017 – 2022 and provides an explanation of the differences between the Wiltshire Community Areas served by the Area Boards and the School Planning Areas. The Strategy is primarily a school place planning tool which, by necessity, is written from the perspective of the School Planning Areas. A School Planning Area (SPA) is defined as the area(s) served by a Secondary School and therefore includes all primary schools in the towns and surrounding villages which feed into that secondary school. As these areas can differ from the community areas, this addendum is a reference tool to aid interested parties from the Community Area/Area Board to define which SPA includes the schools covered by their Community Area. It is therefore written from the Community Area standpoint. Amesbury The Amesbury Community Area and Area Board covers Amesbury town and surrounding parishes of Tilshead, Orcheston, Shrewton, Figheldean, Netheravon, Enford, Durrington (including Larkhill), Milston, Bulford, Cholderton, Wilsford & Lake, The Woodfords and Great Durnford. It encompasses the secondary schools The Stonehenge School in Amesbury and Avon Valley College in Durrington and includes primary schools which feed into secondary provision in the Community Areas of Durrington, Lavington and Salisbury. However, the School Planning Area (SPA) is based on the area(s) served by the Secondary Schools and covers schools in the towns and surrounding villages which feed into either The Stonehenge School in Amesbury or Avon Valley College in Durrington.

  • Mid Wilts Way Directions West to East, in 13 Stages
    Mid Wilts Way directions west to east, in 13 stages MWW directions west to east – Mere to Kingston Deverill Maps: OS Landranger 183, OS Explorer 143 Distance: 5 miles (8 km) Starting in the centre of Mere by the war memorial and clock tower, go down the narrow, apparently unnamed road (it is called Manor Road) opposite the George Inn. Pass Castle Hill Lane, then Crescent, then Castle Hill itself, all on the L, and cross over the A303. Take the bridleway which is the second turning to the R after the Manor House drive (note: not Manor Farm, which is further on). After approx. 70 metres of a metalled road, fork L on a track for roughly the same distance. Go through two gates in quick succession, then follow the track uphill in a broad sweep to the R. It soon becomes apparent that we are ascending the western arm of a large semi-circle of hills. Eventually join another track ascending from the L. Continue with fence on L before veering R to a gate onto a wide track, which goes towards two low, flat hills (tumuli and the remains of White Sheet castle) topped by a mast on White Sheet Hill to your L. Cross the track, go through a gate and keep going in the same (north-easterly) direction through a field with a fence initially to R, then through a gap, after which the fence reappears on your L. Maintain direction on a track on the edge of the next field, then cross the third field aiming for the gate in the opposite fence.
