Poulshot (pronounced Pole-shot) is a village and civil parish in Wiltshire, England. Its nearest town is Devizes, about 2.5 miles (4 km) to the northeast. The parish includes the hamlet of Townsend. The A361 Trowbridge-Devizes road forms part of the northern boundary of the parish, while most of the western boundary is the Summerham Brook, a tributary of the Semington Brook. The Domesday survey of 1086 recorded around 70 households in the area, a relatively large number, although it is not possible to identify which settlements this number refers to. By 1242, the overlord of the manor was John FitzAlan, who was lord of Keevil manor. The Wiltshire Victoria County History traces the later owners, including Sir John Lovel (1341–1408), Gifford Long (c.1576–1635) and the Long family of Rood Ashton. The landowner in 1953 was Viscount Long of Wraxall. More information...
