Highway Wiltshire Map

About Highway

Highway, a quiet hamlet in Wiltshire, finds its character etched by the gentle sweep of the land. It lies 5.7 km north-east of Calne (from Calne: bearing 52°T, OS grid SU 042 744), and is situated east-south-east of Hilmarton village. The surrounding fields, a quilt of greens and golds under the expansive Wiltshire sky, speak of a long and patient husbandry, where the light often falls with a soft, even hand, warming the ancient chalk soil. Here, the pace of life seems to echo the slow turning of the seasons, a rhythm unbroken by the clamour of larger settlements. The houses themselves, a modest collection of stone and brick, appear to have grown organically from the earth, their windows often catching the afternoon sun like sleepy eyes. Though small, Highway possesses a solidity, a quiet assurance that comes from being firmly rooted in its landscape.
