Blounts Court Farm

Devizes is a market town and civil parish in Wiltshire, England. It developed around Devizes Castle, an 11th-century Norman castle, and received a charter in 1141. The castle was besieged during the Anarchy, a 12th-century civil war between Stephen of England and Empress Matilda, and again during the English Civil War when the Cavaliers lifted the siege at the Battle of Roundway Down and the Parliamentarian Army of the West under Sir William Waller was routed. Devizes remained under Royalist control until 1645, when Oliver Cromwell attacked and forced the Royalists to surrender. The castle was destroyed in 1648 on the orders of Parliament, and today little remains of it.

One of the main attractions in Devizes is the Caen Hill Locks, which is a flight of 29 locks on the Kennet and Avon Canal. This impressive feat of engineering is a must-see and is a popular spot for walkers and cyclists. The Devizes Museum is another great place to visit, where you can learn about the fascinating history of the town and the surrounding area.

For those who enjoy the great outdoors, Devizes is the perfect destination. With the stunning Pewsey Vale and Salisbury Plain on your doorstep, there are endless opportunities for hiking, cycling and exploring the beautiful countryside. There are also a number of nature reserves in the area, including the Devizes White Horse and the Wiltshire Wildlife Trust.
