Warminster or ‘Wereminster’, derived its name from the Minster church which was constructed inside a loop of the river Were in Saxon times. Located halfway between Salisbury and Bath on the A36. It is also on the A350 between Poole and the M4 (Junction 17 north of Chippenham) and 47 miles from the M3. It’s approximately 8 miles from the A303.

Warminster was first settled in the Saxon period although numerous past settlements are close by, as well as the Iron Age hill forts, Battlesbury Camp and Cley Hill. The town’s prosperity was built upon the growth of the wool and cloth industry and its corn market. This led to the construction of the Minster Church of Saint Denys.

Warminster’s clothing trade greatly suffered in the early 19th century, as there was no river suitable to power the new industrial machinery. During this time its malting trade declined but remained central. In 1855, William Morgan commissioned the Warminster Maltings, now the oldest working maltings in Britain.

The construction of the railway line from Westbury in 1851, continued to Salisbury in 1856, had a shattering effect on the town’s market, which almost shut down completely, and the shops and inns lost most of their business. In 1860 Warminster had begun to adopt new trades in brewing and iron-founding, which ultimately grew enough to replace the loss of other business.  The Woodcock Ironworks, set up by John Wallis Titt in the mid-1870s to make agricultural machinery was one example.

In 1943 in preparation for the Allied invasion of Europe, the people of Imber a small village located just to the north of Warminster on the Salisbury plain, were given just 47 days’ to leave their houses so the US forces could practice urban fighting. After the war the Imber village continued to be used for training mainly as a substitute for the urban environment of Northern Ireland. The village is still owned by the Ministry of Defence and is opened up to the public on number of days every year.

Today Warminster a lovely market town set within a beautiful rural landscape. There are many great walks around the area and is the nearest town to Longleat Safari the UK’s first ever Safari Park and one of Britain’s most remarkable examples of high Elizabethan architecture.
