Welcome to Great Chalfield

Great Chalfield is a small village located in the county of Wiltshire, England. The village is known for its beautiful manor house, Great Chalfield Manor, which was built in the 15th century. The manor house is a Grade I listed building and is considered to be one of the finest examples of a medieval manor house in England. The house is surrounded by beautiful gardens and a moat, which adds to its charm and beauty.

The manor house was built by Thomas Tropenell, a wealthy wool merchant, in the 15th century.

Apart from the manor house, Great Chalfield also has a beautiful church, St. Leonard's Church, which dates back to the 13th century. The church has a beautiful stained glass window, which is considered to be one of the finest examples of medieval stained glass in England. The church also has a beautiful tower, which offers stunning views of the surrounding countryside. Great Chalfield is a beautiful village that is steeped in history and is definitely worth a visit.
