The parish is almost entirely farmland, with parkland and gardens around the 18th-century house. In the southwest the parish extends to the Petersfinger area on the western outskirts of Salisbury, and the west bank of the Salisbury Avon. The Clarendon Way recreational footpath passes through the parish.[2]

History edit

Clarendon Forest housed a royal hunting lodge in the 12th century, which was expanded into a royal palace in the 13th. In the 16th century the buildings reverted to a hunting lodge and were then abandoned. Today only foundations and part of one wall survive.[3]

House edit

The house was completed in 1737 for Peter Bathurst, MP for Salisbury, who was a member of the wealthy Bathurst slave-trading family, and remodelled internally in 1814 and 1920.[4][5] After having been passed down the Hervey-Bathurst family, it was occupied by Sir Frederick Hervey-Bathurst, 3rd Baronet, from 1824 to 1881, and then by his son Sir Frederick Hervey-Bathurst, 4th Baronet, until 1900. Around 1920, Sir Frederick Hervey-Bathurst, 5th Baronet, sold it to a Christie-Miller,[6] and the estate was bought by Marc Jonas and his wife in 2006.[7]
