Devizes is a beautiful market town and civil parish in the heart of Wiltshire, England. The town is about 6 miles from the Glamping site, 10.5 miles (16.9 km) southeast of Chippenham and 11 miles (18 km) east of the county town of Trowbridge.

It has nearly five hundred listed buildings, some notable churches, a Town Hall, a green at the heart of the town and the Caen Hill Locks walkway. Its development has grown around the 11th century Norman castle.
Caen Hill Locks
The sight is a quite staggering example of engineering worth visiting if near Devizes. They are a short walk from the town Centre and the Wadsworth brewery and a short drive from Avebury so are easily combined in a days sightseeing.
The Kennet and Avon Canal was built under the direction of John Rennie between 1794 and 1810 to link Devizes with Bristol and London. Near Devizes the canal rises 237 feet (72 m) by means of 29 locks, 16 of them in a straight line at Caen Hill. The place is a quite staggering example of engineering
In the early days the canal was lit by gas lights at night, enabling boats to negotiate the locks at any time of day. The canal fell into disuse after the coming of the railway in the 1850s, but has been restored for leisure uses. There is a canal museum at Devizes Wharf.

At the centre of a pre-historic complex in the Marlborough Downs stands Avebury Stone Circle, the largest stone circle in the world. This circle features one of the most impressive henges in Britain as well as remains of a stone avenue.
Originally erected about 4,500 years ago, many of the stones were re-erected in the 1930s by Alexander Keiller.

A completely unpretentious aircraft hangar full of planes you can actually sit in.
