Hankerton is a small rural village and civil parish in north Wiltshire, England, a few miles north of Malmesbury on the edge of the Cotswolds. It sits amid gentle rolling farmland and small woodlands, with traditional stone cottages, farmsteads and quiet lanes that reflect a long agricultural past.
The parish has medieval roots and retains a compact community life centred on a parish church, a village hall and scattered farms; the local economy remains largely agricultural, supplemented by a handful of small businesses and commuters. Residents and visitors appreciate the peaceful rural character, wildlife-rich hedgerows and the sense of continuity given by historic houses and long-standing village traditions.
