This book presents a compelling narrative that weaves a thematic history, case studies, and in-depth examinations of village life in Kington St Michael and Kington Langley throughout the centuries. Readers will find themselves immersed in the intricate details of these north Wiltshire communities, gaining insights into the lives of the villagers, their livelihoods, social interactions, and religious practices, alongside some of the most critical events and histories of significant buildings. The text is enlivened with over 100 illustrations from four centuries to the present day, including many previously unpublished 17th-century sketches and paintings by John Aubrey. It has been researched and produced in parallel with the Chippenham volume of the Victoria County History of Wiltshire and is published in association with the Victoria County History of England and Kington St Michael Parish Council. Although of particular interest to local people, with its comprehensive approach and stories of named village people from the 12th to the 20th century at its heart, this book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of rural communities, social history, and the evolution of village life.
