This short footpath leaves Lower Road and leads to Downs View. Edington is a former agricultural village which lies on the ‘springline’ of the northern escarpment of Salisbury Plain about 4 miles east of the town of Westbury. A priory was founded in the 14th century and became a monastery of the Brothers of Penitence, or Bonshommes. The magnificent monastery church continues in use as the parish church and is the home of the nationally-known annual Edington Music Festival.
