Yatton Keynell is a small village and civil parish in Wiltshire, England, sitting on the edge of rolling limestone countryside a few miles north‑west of Chippenham. The village retains a historic core of honey‑coloured stone houses and a medieval parish church, and its name derives from the Keynell family who held the manor in the medieval period.
Today it is a largely rural and commuter community, with farming and small local businesses alongside residents who travel to nearby towns or to Bath and Bristol. Local life revolves around the village hall, seasonal events and easy access to walking routes into the nearby Cotswolds, giving it the quiet, community‑minded character typical of north Wiltshire villages.
