Market Lavington Parish Council has been served by Colin Osborn for 13 years as a Councillor, and led by him for 12 years as Chair. We owe a significant debt of gratitude to him for his constant commitment to the role over those year, dedicating his time, and energy. The boots (or sandals if you know him) he leaves will be difficult to fill.
As a team we will move the Parish Council forward in a positive direction, trialing a few new changes. The Parish Council couldn’t function without our Clerk, and the Councillors who give of their time voluntarily with the common goal of improving things for people in the village we all love. We aren’t always perfect, but we will never stop striving for Market Lavington.
We are open to new Councillors from every background and skill set. The only pre requisite is that you have a desire to help and improve things for this community.
If you are interested in joining the Parish Council, then please contact clerk@marketlavingtonparishcouncil.gov.uk
Or go onto our website www.marketlavingtonparishcouncil.gov.uk
Equally you could telephone the Clerk on 01225 760372
As the new Chairperson I am excited to see what we can achieve and anybody new who comes on board will be warmly welcomed.
Thank you all for your support.
Chloe Stevens.
Chairman of Market Lavington Parish Council
Market Lavington is a large, friendly and thriving village on the northern slopes of Salisbury Plain, situated about five miles south of Devizes. Market Lavington has always been a lively community, and for centuries was one of Wiltshire's foremost market towns, having been granted a royal charter in 1252 by Henry III.
Although it has all the character and charm of a traditional Wiltshire village, and is set in the midst of beautiful countryside, Market Lavington has always been a working community. Today its facilities include a Co-op supermarket, chemist, butcher, and post office, two hairdressers, a pub & restaurant with accommodation, cafe, takeaways and a number of small businesses, so you can buy almost anything you need in the village. We also have a pre-school, a primary school and a secondary school (all rated good, by OFSTED), a doctors' surgery, a library, a community hall, Old School Hall and our very own Village Museum!
The parish lies at the foot of the north western scarp slope of Salisbury Plain. It originally contained Easterton, now a separate civil parish, and Gore, now in West Lavington. The parish is long and narrow with Gault clay in the north, rising to a ridge of Upper Greensand at about 96 metres at Ledge Hill. This ridge is known as the Sands and was common land for many centuries. In the 18th century its light fertile soil provided suitable land for commercial orchards and market gardening. Half the parish is on the chalk uplands (military area) that rises to about 200m on Lavington Hill.

Carriageway repair works Kings Road
Kings Road
10
July 2024
NOTIFICATION FROM ATKINS
As consultant representative for Wiltshire Council, I write to inform you of carriageway repair works programmed on KINGS ROAD (SHARP BEND TO 30 MPH) EASTERTON MARKET LAVINGTON.
These works involve surface dressing works, adjustment of ironwork, reinstatement of road markings and associated maintenance works.
The works will commence on Wednesday the 10th of July 2024 and will be completed by Friday the 12th of July 2024 between the hours of 07:00 and 19:00, however on occasions they may over run due to uncontrollable circumstances such as plant breakdowns, if weather conditions are unfavourable, or occasionally we discover the need for additional repairs once the work has started. There will be advance information signs erected on site giving confirmed start dates.
Due to the nature of the works and the local environment, the works will be carried out within a temporary road closure, to ensure that adequate health & safety is maintained for the contractor & local residents.
Road Markings and Ironwork adjustments may need to be completed at a later date.
The Contractor will maintain pedestrian access for residents for the duration of the works; but depending upon what operation is being undertaken and where it’s being undertaken residents may find that when accessing or egressing from their property in their vehicle, they may experience a delay and have to wait for plant to be moved out of the carriageway. I have suggested to residents that when leaving their property, to allow extra time for any possible delays and when returning to their property, there will be traffic management operatives located at the extents of the works, to speak to them, explain where they live, and they will be able to assist.
There will be points during the material laying process where vehicular access will be restricted as residents won’t be able to drive over the newly laid material, as early trafficking could lead to premature failure, therefore I have recommended to residents that if works are being undertaken in the vicinity of their property to speak to the workforce in advance to ask if there will be any restrictions with regards to access.
Advanced signing will be erected, and letter drops to all residents located within the site extents will commence week starting 24th of June 2024. Signing will be in place advising that local businesses will be open as usual.
I would like to take this opportunity to apologise for any inconvenience these works will cause but trust you will appreciate the necessity for these essential works to maintain Wiltshire's highway network. Should you require any further information in advance of the works please refer to (https://one.network/?tmi=GB32287476). If you wish to discuss the works whilst they are in operation, please speak to a member of the workforce who will direct you to the appropriate person on site.
