Summary

[edit]
Description
English: West Lavington from White Horse Trail "The parish of West Lavington includes the settlements of West Lavington and Littleton Panell, which now form a nearly continuous line of ribbon development along the A360 Devizes to Salisbury road. Today it is difficult to know where the boundary lies between the settlements but West Lavington lies to the south, grouped around its church and former manor house while Littleton Panell is to the north, along the main road and around its former manor house, à Becketts. There does not seem to have been too much difference in population size at the end of the 18th century, but from around 1870 West Lavington increased far more in size and outstripped its neighbour in population. The population of the whole parish reached a peak of 1,589 in 1861 and then, in common with most villages declined, although there was an unusual increase in the 1920s." The above was copied from: http://www.wiltshire.gov.uk/community/getcom.php?id=237 where there is much more of interest.
