The area surrounding the village is rich in ancient remains. To the north, on the lower slopes of Huish Hill and Oar Hill (to either side of the A345 Oare Hill Road to Marlborough) are extensive earthworks.
To the north-east, the summit of Martinsell Hill which rises to a height of 289 metres is the site of an ancient hill fort. To the east of the village, the peculair conical "Giant's Grare" is a natural feature which is reminiscent of man-made Silbury Hill. It rises to a height of 250 metres and earthworks are found on its summit and strip lynchetts on the lower slopes to its south.
About a mile to the south of the village lies the Kennet & Avon Canal.
