Flowery Delivery to Wiltshire by Clare Florist
A predominantly rural county, Wiltshire is characterised by its high downland and wide valleys. One of the most notable sites located here is Stonehenge which is at Salisbury Plain. Other than that, the city of Salisbury is also home to a medieval cathedral. Plus, there are several country houses that are also open to the public, including Longleat and Stourhead.
Wiltshire is quite notable for its pre-Roman archaeology. People from the Mesolithic, Neolithic, and Bronze Age that occupied southern Britain built settlements on the hills and downlands in the county. Two of the most famous Neolithic sites are Stonehenge and Avebury.
The 6th and 7th centuries in Wiltshire were at the western edge of Saxon Britain. Cranborne Chase and the Somerset Levels stopped the advance towards the west. In 675, the Battle of Bedwyn was fought between Escuin, a West Saxon nobleman who seized the throne of Queen Saxburga and King Wulfhere of Mercia.
In 878, the Danes invaded Wiltshire. The county came into the possession of the crown and church after the Norman Conquest.
Places of Interest
Ashecombe House – this is also known as Ashcombe Park. It is a Georgian manor house and is listed on the Statutory List of Buildings of Special Architectural or Historic Interest as a Grade II structure by English Heritage.
Avebury – a Neolithic henge monument that contains three stone circles around the village of Avebury. The original purpose of the stones is unknown, but archaeologists believe that it was used for some form of ritual or ceremony.
Longleat –a stately English home and the seat of the Marquesses of Bath. It is most noted for its Elizabethan country house, maze, landscaped parkland, and safari. The gardens are lovely for their Wiltshire flowers, and the children will surely love the safari.
Stonehenge – a prehistoric monument that is 2 miles west of Amesbury. It is one of the most famous sites in the entire world. Stonehenge is the remains of a ring of standing stones set within earthworks. Archaeological evidence suggests that this could have been a burial ground.
Trafalgar House – This is also known as Trafalgar Park. It is a country house located in the south of Salisbury. It is a popular venue for weddings, corporate meetings, and charity fund raisers. A couple of films were also shot here.
Wiltshire Heritage Museum – Where else would you go to learn everything – archaeology, art, history, and natural history – about Wiltshire than a museum? Here, there are collections that cover different periods including Paleolithic, Neolithic, Bronze Age, Roman, Saxon, and Medieval.
Parks and Open Spaces
Barton Farm Country Park – This is a 36-acre countryside facility that offers something for everyone. There is walking, rowing, fishing, studying nature, and relaxing with a picnic. There are a wide range of plant species that support birds and insects. The park is an all-year-round destination. Walking around the park allows you to see historic buildings, craft and tea shops.
Lydiard Park – This is a country park at Lydiard Tregoze (which is its formal name). The fruit and flower Walled Garden features a stunning display of flowers in Wiltshire, as well as fruit trees and topiary.
