Castle Combe is a lively village nestled in Wiltshire, England with almost 350 inhabitants. It's an idyllic village with over 107 historic buildings, and its origins can be traced back to the Domesday Book in 1086. The most striking site in Castle Combe is the 14th-century Market Cross, which testifies to the importance of the cloth industry in the area. Near the cross are the remains of the Butter Cross, as well as one of the two village pumps. There's something for everyone to enjoy in Castle Combe; you can explore the ruins of the 12th century castle, marvel at the nearby Roman Villa site, wander down the narrow path along the By Brook River or even stay the night at one of the manor houses. With its unique character and seemingly endless attractions, Castle Combe never fails to captivate visitors and locals alike.
