Yatton Keynell is a small village and civil parish in north Wiltshire, a few miles north‑east of Chippenham and within easy reach of Bath and the Cotswolds. Perched on rolling limestone countryside, it looks over the By Brook valley and offers classic stone cottages and hedgerow‑lined lanes that make it popular with walkers and cyclists exploring the nearby escarpment.
There is a distinctly rural, historic feel: the settlement grew around a medieval manor associated with the Keynell family and the parish church contains fabric from the medieval period. Today the economy mixes farming and small local enterprises with many residents commuting to nearby towns, while a lively village community maintains social events, local clubs and conservation of the surrounding landscape.
