Sherrington is a small village and civil parish in Wiltshire, England, set in rolling chalk downland and farmland a short drive from the market city of Salisbury. The settlement is compact and characterful, with a handful of historic houses and farmsteads that reflect a long rural history; its landscape of hedgerows and fields is typical of south Wiltshire and popular with walkers and those seeking quiet countryside.
The local economy remains rooted in agriculture, though many residents commute to nearby towns for work and services, and community life revolves around local events and the parish’s traditional institutions. Historic links to medieval manorial structures and a strong conservation interest in the surrounding downland give the place a sense of continuity and a quietly preserved rural character.
