    About

    The town sits beside the A303 which itself sits on parts of the Fosse Way, an ancient Roman road linking important Roman settlements and forts. Cranborne Chase and West Wiltshire Downs AONB are both on within easy reach.

    An Iron Age hill fort, White Hill Camp was one of the earliest settlements. There are also several barrows (ancient burial mounds), which were looted over the centuries.

    A rural area, riding is a popular past time and farming forms a major part of the local economy.

    Leisure

    There’s plenty to offer sporty types moving to Mere, football, cricket and bowls clubs, tennis courts and a skate park. There are also plenty of good eateries in the area, several listed buildings and miles of countryside to explore.

    As well as the illustrious brush museum, there is a museum dedicated of the history of the town.

    September ushers in the popular Carnival, while October heralds the arrival of the Mere Literary Festival. Mere Golf Club is also popular with a luxury hotel and spa.
