2012 : Urban creep on the edge of Devizes
Very recent urban creep and quite pleasant but still urban creep. So recent it does not yet figure on Where's the Path. You take the first turning past the police station on the A361 north of Devizes.

2012 : New housing on the edge of Devizes
West of Brickham Bridge.
I hesitate to call this an estate, though it obviously is, the mix of styles has been skillfully handled so some but not too many have a similar appearance.

Devizes features [17]
The play area is located within the Quakers Walk housing estate.
The market town of Devizes developed around its 11th century castle. It gained a charter in 1141 and holds a weekly market in the large and picturesque Market Place. In the 16th century the town became known for its textiles and in the early 18th century held the largest corn market in the West Country. Devizes has about 500 listed buildings - a very large number for a small town.
