Corston is a small village in north Wiltshire, a short distance from the historic market town of Malmesbury and close to the rolling countryside of the Cotswolds. It sits among limestone fields and hedgerow-lined lanes, giving it the quiet, rural character typical of this part of England and pleasant walking country with views towards the Avon valley.
Historically the locality was agricultural and linked to the region’s wool and farming economy, and today it combines remaining farms with residents who commute to nearby centres such as Swindon and Bristol. Community life tends to be village-centred, with interest in the nearby historic sites such as Malmesbury Abbey, making it attractive to people who value a tranquil village lifestyle with good access to larger towns.
