Wiltshire (/ˈwɪltʃər/ or /ˈwɪltʃɪər/, formerly /ˈwɪlʃər/; or the County of Wilts) is a ceremonial county in South West England. It is landlocked and borders the counties of Dorset, Somerset, Hampshire, Gloucestershire, Oxfordshire and Berkshire. It contains the unitary authority of Swindon and covers 3,485 km2 (1,346 square miles).[2] The ancient county town was Wilton, but since 1930 Wiltshire County Council and its successor Wiltshire Council (from 2009) have been based at Trowbridge.
Wiltshire is characterised by its high downland and wide valleys. Salisbury Plain is famous as the location of the Stonehenge and Avebury stone circles and other ancient landmarks and as the main training area in the UK of the British Army. The city of Salisbury is notable for its mediaeval cathedral. Important country houses open to the public include Longleat, near Warminster, and the National Trust's Stourhead, near Mere

Welcome to the Warminster Our Community Matters blogsite. The site has been set up to provide local people with an interactive notice board everyone can use to highlight and discuss local news, events and ideas.
There is an events section on the Community Matters website and it would be very useful if details of all of the events going on in your villages such as summer fetes and fairs, coffee mornings, car boot sales, fund-raising events etc. could be posted onto the site. This will make sure that as many people as possible know what is happening in Warminster and surrounding villages.
