Welcome to Heddington

Heddington Parish is split into two wards, Heddington and Stockley


Heddington Parish is split into two wards, Heddington and Stockley. It adjoins the parishes of Calne, Bromham, Derry Hill & Studley, Devizes, Bishops Canning and Cherhill and sits to the south of Calne. The Parish encompasses the villages of Heddington and Stockley, and hamlets of Heddington Wick and the Splatts, Broads Green and Mile Elm.

The parish lies at the Western scarp of the Marlborough Downs. The highest point of the parish is the summit of King’s Play hill which stands at 230 m. The name King’s Play refers to the Battle (and Royalist victory) on Roundway Down in 1643. There are several barrows on King’s Play Hill including a Neolithic long barrow and a bowl barrow containing a Saxon burial. Roman remains have been found at Heddington Wick and elsewhere in the west part of the parish. King’s Play is also a site of Special Scientific Interest.
