Map of the UK

Westbury West sits on the western side of the small market town of Westbury in Wiltshire, tucked into the chalk landscape of the southern English downs. The ward looks out towards the famous Westbury White Horse on Bratton Downs, and its mix of residential streets and open fields reflects the town’s edge-of-countryside character.

Locally the area feels like a practical commuter neighbourhood with easy rail links via Westbury railway station and road connections to places such as Trowbridge and Bath, while still retaining small local shops, community groups and a history tied to the town’s market and former cloth trades. The result is a modest, community‑minded ward with visible rural heritage and the everyday rhythms of a market‑town suburb.
