    Sutton Veny Best Kept Villages

    Sutton Veny Best Kept Villages Villages clean up at contest The finalists of the Best Kept Village in west Wiltshire have been named. Bratton came top in the large village section, beating Atworth, Bowerhill, Holt and North Bradley, while Sutton Veny was judged the best medium village, finishing ahead of Edington, Horningsham, Shaw and Whitely. Best small village is Chitterne, which saw off competition from Beanacre, Bishopstrow and Boreham, Brokerswood, Coulston and Great Hinton. Chairman of Chitterne Parish Council, Jeremy Reid said: "We are absolutely delighted. The people who work voluntarily are the ones who made it possible." Chitterne was the only village of the three not to have received the same accolade two years running. The last time they won was in 1997. Cllr Reid said: "We listened to the judges last time and we have made some improvements. "We changed the position of the notice board and we did restoration work on the recreation ground." The three winners will now go through to the county final, which will be judged later this summer. Chairman of Sutton Veny Parish Council, Tony Henthorne said: "We have a core group of people who have helped and they did a sterling job of cleaning the village and making it tidy. "We are looking forward to the next round of the competition and hopefully we will have better luck than we did last year." Clerk of Bratton Parish Council, Anita Whittle said: "We are very pleased. Everyone is delighted. "Special thanks must go to the village handyman, Bob Jordan who has been tidying all the village lanes.

    1 HILL DEVERILL – DRAFT TEXT by Virginia Bainbridge, John Chandler

    HILL DEVERILL – DRAFT TEXT By Virginia Bainbridge, John Chandler, Alex Craven and Dorothy Treasure The ancient parish of Hill Deverill included the detached tithing of Baycliffe which lay 5.5 km. west of Hill Deverill village.1 In 1884 Baycliffe (c. 200 a.)2 was absorbed into Horningsham parish, and in 1934 Hill Deverill itself (1,548 a.)3 was absorbed into Longbridge Deverill parish.4 The village of Hill Deverill straddles the River Wylye 5 km. south of Warminster. The parish was rarely more than 1 km. wide and extended from east to west across the upper Wylye, or Deverill, valley up onto the high chalk downs on each side. Apart from Baycliffe farm and Rye Hill farm in the west of the former parish, all medieval and later settlement has been in the river valley, where the manor house, former church, mill and village earthworks sit alongside cottages, watercress beds and some 20th-century housing. The parish may have acquired the name Hulle, or Hill, Deverill from its prominent western landmark, Bidcombe Hill.5 Boundaries Hill Deverill shared its entire southern boundary with Brixton Deverill, most of its northern boundary with Longbridge Deverill, shorter sections with Sutton Veny and Horningsham, and its western boundary with Maiden Bradley.6 Baycliffe was separated from Horningsham to the north and from Maiden Bradley to the south and east mainly by lanes, hedgerows, and by what was probably an ancient line 1 This article was written in 2009–10.
