Sutton Benger is a small village and civil parish in north Wiltshire, England, set in a largely agricultural landscape a short drive from the M4 and the market town of Chippenham. Its low-lying fields and network of country lanes give it a distinctly rural feel, while good road links have made it a popular spot for people working in nearby towns and cities.

The settlement has medieval roots and takes its name from a historic local landowning family; a parish church and several older houses reflect that long history. Village life remains centred on community institutions such as the village hall, a local school and the pub, and agriculture still shapes the local economy even as commuting and small-scale development have changed the social mix in recent decades. Annual events and local clubs contribute to a close-knit community atmosphere.
