Fitz Farmhouse, Hindon Road, was built in 1713, altered in the late 18th century and in the late 19th century. Constructed of rubble stone under a roof partly of tile and partly of slate. Attached to the rear and linked by a 19th century covered passage are some brick outbuildings with Welsh slate roofs now stores and garages. Listed, grade II, with details at: https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1318757 Dinton is a village in the Nadder valley, in Wiltshire, about 8¼ miles west of Salisbury and some 10½ miles northeast of Shaftesbury. Evidence of ancient settlement in the area is plentiful, including Grim's Ditch, Hanging Langford Camp, an Iron Age settlement, and the hill fort of Wick Ball Camp. Dinton is now a commuter village with most working residents travelling to Salisbury.
