Thickwood, a quiet dispersal of homes in Wiltshire, claims its place in the South West's gentle embrace. It lies 5.4 km west-north-west of Corsham (from Corsham: bearing 291°T, OS grid ST 821 724), and is situated north-north-east of Colerne village. The surrounding landscape, a patchwork of ancient fields and copses, often catches the afternoon sun in a way that softens even the sharpest hedgerow. A faint scent of damp earth and woodsmoke can linger after a rain shower, a quiet testament to the land's enduring agricultural life. The lanes that thread through Thickwood, often bordered by weathered stone walls, seem to lead to nowhere in particular, encouraging a slower pace. The sky here can feel vast and open, particularly as dusk begins to gather, painting the west in hues of rose and fading gold.
