Rejig

With the best will in the world, this article is more like a Parish Magazine than an encyclopedic article. There's virtually nothing about its history, especially the Baynton family, nothing about the fame of locally-cured ham, and the section on the football club was simply too much for a casual reader. However, as a start, it's not that bad; it has an infobox, and a good, representative image. Since I'm working on North Wilts history at present, I've pencilled this in for attention. As regards the above amenities, with the best will in the world, we just don't list every small business in every location; there are other websites for that. --Rodhullandemu 00:53, 7 March 2009 (UTC)
