	Detailed History
		The ancient parish of Westbury was one of the largest in Wiltshire.
		Ecclesiastically Westbury was, until the mid 19th century, a ‘peculiar’ parish, unusual in that instead of being under the jurisdiction of the Bishop of Salisbury it was managed first by the precentor or chantor of Salisbury Cathedral who was overseen by the Dean of the Cathedral.
		The manor of Westbury Chantry was vested in the precentor.

	Wiltshire White Horses: The Westbury or Bratton white horse
		The Westbury white horse is the oldest of the Wiltshire horses.
		It is on Westbury Hill, on the edge of the Bratton Downs, immediately below the Iron Age hillfort called Bratton Camp, north-east of Westbury and near to the villages of Bratton and Edington.
		He relates that he was told by local people that it had first been cut in the memory of persons still living or who had recently died, which suggests a date in the late sixteen hundreds.

	Westbury Wiltshire A350 Bypass Information
		In a survey by consultants to Wiltshire County Council in 2001, up to 79% of Westbury area residents with a view were opposed to an eastern bypass.
		As few as 21% were in favour of the so-called "preferred" eastern bypass scheme.
		The heart of these problems is that Wiltshire County Council's eastern highway is paradoxically planned to be built through the water supply protection zones.

		I suggest that locals walk the route of the planned eastern Westbury bypass, as we have often done.
		There are also good views of the Westbury White Horse from upper Newtown, which also just happens to be where an eastern bypass would come through.
		We have read elsewhere that an eastern bypass will be useful for visitors to Wiltshire, as they would have convenient views of the Westbury Escarpment and White Horse from their cars, without having to stop.

		ACA say that WCC's eastern bypass plan is really the worst of all for Westbury and will not resolve the transport needs of the area.
		Urbanisation, destruction of the finest landscape and loss of trade in Westbury town centre would follow.
