Map of the UK

South Newton is a small rural village and civil parish in Wiltshire, England, set in the chalk folds of the Wylye Valley just to the west of Wilton and within easy reach of Salisbury. The village sits by the River Wylye and is surrounded by classic southern English downland, so it feels closely connected to the landscape of Salisbury Plain and the wider prehistoric environment that includes places like Stonehenge.

Historically the area has an agricultural character and a small historic core of stone cottages and a parish church; today livelihoods mix farming with commuting to nearby market towns, and the community retains a village-centred social life with local events, walking routes and a strong sense of local conservation of the valley’s character.
