Map of the UK

Westbury North sits at the northern end of the market town of Westbury in Wiltshire, tucked beneath the chalk escarpment that bears the famous Westbury White Horse and close to the edge of Salisbury Plain. The area is a mix of Victorian and post‑war housing with some more recent developments, and the town’s market and railway heritage remains visible around Westbury and its station, while open farmland and rolling downland are never far away.

Locally the economy leans on small shops, light industry and service firms in the town, with agriculture still important on the outskirts; community life is centred on schools, sports clubs and regular local events, and residents benefit from straightforward rail and road links to nearby centres such as Trowbridge and Bradford on Avon.
