Perrior House, High Street, was originally built in the 17th century and rebuilt in the late 18th century. Set gable end to the street and constructed of rubble stone and chalk, partly rendered, under a tile roof. There is a late 19th century lean-to extension at the rear and some 19th century cast-iron railings at the front. Listed, grade II, with details at: https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1198013 The village of Wylye is located halfway between Salisbury and Warminster, some 9½ miles (15 kilometres) from both. The village is astride the River Wylye and is just south of the major road intersection with the junction of the A36 and the A303. Within the wider area Bronze Age artefacts have been found, there is an Iron Age hill fort and a Roman Road runs east to west.
