Welcome to Stockton

Stockton Wiltshire is a small town located in the county of Wiltshire, England. The town has a population of approximately 2,500 people and is situated on the River Wylye. The town has a rich history, with evidence of human settlement dating back to the Neolithic period. The town was an important center for the wool trade in the medieval period and was also a significant location during the English Civil War.

One of the most notable landmarks in Stockton Wiltshire is the Church of St. John the Baptist. The church dates back to the 12th century and is a Grade I listed building. The church features a Norman doorway, a 14th-century font, and a 15th-century pulpit. The church also has a unique feature in the form of a medieval wall painting depicting St. Christopher carrying the Christ child across a river.

Stockton Wiltshire is surrounded by beautiful countryside and is a popular destination for walkers and cyclists. The town is located on the Wiltshire Cycleway, a 160-mile circular route that takes in some of the county's most picturesque scenery. The town is also close to the Salisbury Plain, a vast area of chalk downland that is home to a variety of wildlife, including rare butterflies and birds of prey.

Local Dog Walks

Fonthill Lakeside Walk
There Is A Great Network Of Public Footpaths And Bridleways In The Vicinity Of Fonthill Gifford And Fonthill Bishop (See Map Image). Although Entry To The Water Is Actively Discouraged If You Walk To The Dam At The Southern End Of The Lake, Just Beyond It Is A Fabulous Shallow Chalk Stream For Splashing Around In. I Suggest Parking Where The Finger Is Pointing On My Posted Map. Fonthill Is Famous For Its Huge 18Thc Country House, Long Since Demolished After It Part Collapsed! See Link To Find Out More About That. The Only Visible Remains Of The Abbey Are The Huge Arch And Urns At The North Entrance To The Estate, Just Off The B3089 At Fonthill Bishop. Unnamed Road Lancashire 5.04 miles 15 Miles W Of Salisbury, Off B3089 At Fonthill Bishop. There'S A Public Road Through The Estate (You Can Drive Through The Arch!), Heading South Towards Fonthill Gifford And Tisbury. I'Ve Marked The Parking Place On One Of My Uploaded Images.

Shearwater Lake Wiltshire
Easy To Find If You Know Warminster, It's The First Time We've Been And My Husband, Myself And Two Dogs Really Enjoyed Ourselves. Took A While To Figure Out Where The Dogs To Be Let Of There Leads As They Aren't Allowed Around The Main Lake Because Of People Fishing, However There Are Other Areas In Which The Dogs Can Have A Good Splash About. Lovely Scenery Of The Main Lake And Surrounding Forest. You Can Hire Boats And Take On The Lake, Have A Nice Bike Ride Around (Which We Are Planning) Or Just Enjoy The Walk. Would Recommend For Any Age. Lovely Afternoon Out. 106 Clay St Warminster BA12 8AF 7.82 miles
