Whitbourne Springs is a small spring complex and the surrounding locality in Wiltshire, England, set on the county’s characteristic chalk geology where groundwater breaks out to feed small streams and wet meadows. It’s a quiet, rural spot rather than a major visitor attraction, and its springs help sustain the patchwork of farmland, hedgerows and riparian trees typical of downland countryside.
Like many such spring sites in Wiltshire, it has local historic resonance - springs often provided water for farmsteads or powered small mills - and today is appreciated for its wildlife, seasonal birdlife and informal walks; its value is largely ecological and agricultural rather than commercial.
