The Street, Chilmark
The Street is the main street of the village of Chilmark off which lies the church, school, and innumerable stone-built and often thatched cottages. Here, halfway along the street and looking south-east, there is a small bridge over the currently dried up stream that runs through the village. The northern end of the street near the village church, and behind the camera, is in the next grid square. The Street is quiet because the main road, the B3089 from Salisbury to Hindon, runs east-west through the north side of the village.
The name Chilmark comes from the Anglo-Saxon, 'cild' for child, or 'cigel', a pole or peg, and 'mearc' meaning boundary. For more information about the history of Chilmark, see http://www.nadderfocus.com/Villages/Chilmark/chil1.htm#history.
Stone from the nearby Chilmark quarries was used in the building of both the cathedral at Old Sarum and the celebrated Gothic one in Salisbury, see http://www.wessexdlstone.com/history1.htm.

Houses, The Street, Chilmark
This cottage is halfway along The Street, the main street of the village of Chilmark, see
Image, and is substantial compared with village houses generally. The cottage is built of local limestone probably from Chilmark Quarries south of the village, it has mullioned windows, and may be early 18th-century. There is a nameplate 'Taylors Cottage' though whether this has any historical significance is not known. The cottage is a listed building, and in the entry is called Olivers Cottage, http://www.imagesofengland.org.uk/Details/Default.aspx?id=320338&mode=quick,
