Devizes
Devizes is a market community as well as civil parish in the centre of Wiltshire, England. It created around Devizes Castle, an 11th-century Norman castle, and also received a charter in 1141 permitting routine markets, which are held weekly in an open market place. The castle was besieged during the Anarchy, a 12th-century civil war between Stephen of England and also Empress Matilda, and again throughout the English Civil War when the Cavaliers (Royalists) raised the siege during the Fight of Roundway Down. Devizes continued to be under Royalist control till 1645, when Oliver Cromwell assaulted as well as required the Royalists to surrender. The castle was ruined in 1648 on the orders of Parliament, as well as today little remains of it. From the 16th century Devizes ended up being understood for its fabrics, as well as by the early 18th century it held the largest corn market in the West Country, creating the Corn Exchange in 1857. In the 18th century, brewing, treating of tobacco, and also snuff-making were established. The Wadworth Brewery was founded in the community in 1875. Standing at the west side of the Vale of Pewsey, the community is about 10.5 miles (16.9 kilometres) southeast of Chippenham as well as 11 miles (18 kilometres) east-north-east of the county town of Trowbridge. It has virtually five hundred listed structures, some notable churches, a city center as well as an environment-friendly in the centre of the town.
