Coulston is a small rural village and civil parish in Wiltshire, England, set among the rolling chalk downland and mixed farmland typical of the county. The settlement comprises stone cottages, farm buildings and a compact historic core, giving it a quiet, pastoral character while remaining within easy reach of market towns such as Westbury and Trowbridge.

Historically agricultural, the local economy remains largely farm-based with a number of residents commuting to nearby centres; the area also attracts walkers and those interested in rural heritage and conservation. Social life tends to centre on community and church activities, and the village retains several listed buildings and lanes that hint at a long manorial and medieval past characteristic of rural Wiltshire.
