Redlands Wiltshire Map

About Redlands

Redlands breathes a quiet, unassuming presence within the rolling chalk downs of Wiltshire. It lies 0.8 km south-south-west of Highworth (from Highworth: bearing 192°T, OS grid SU 198 916). The land here, a gentle mosaic of arable fields and ancient hedgerows, often catches the low afternoon sun in a way that lends a fleeting, burnished gold to the stubble and the distant tree lines. Few grand monuments mark the landscape of Redlands; its character is more subtly expressed in the weathered flint of old farmsteads and the low hum of agricultural machinery that drifts on the breeze. The air, especially after a spring shower, carries the clean, earthy scent of loam and the faint, sweet perfume of hawthorn blossom, a testament to generations who have worked this soil. Its proximity to Highworth suggests a shared history, a gentle intertwining of lives and livelihoods across the modest distances that separate these Wiltshire hamlets.
