2011 : Church Lane, Sherrington Sherrington is a small and pleasant village tucked away beside a minor road running along the Wylye valley, which itself is tucked away on the south side of the valley well away from the A36 which runs along the north side. Sherrington does little to advertise itself, you could pass within 100 yards without knowing it is there. To be fair, if you lived in a place like Sherrington would you want hordes of visitors descending? Not me!
