A former county town, Wilton is situated some 2¾ miles west of Salisbury on the confluence of the River Nadder and the River Wylye.

The town declined in importance after Salisbury Cathedral was built. The town is renowned for carpet manufacture, which began in 1741 when two French weavers were brought in and a carpet factory continued to operate until 1995.
