The Monument can be seen to the left of the Gatepost, in the field.

A well named establishment. A plenitude of Mount Pleasant Farms on the www but not this one I'm afraid.

Dist:0.1km<br/>Monument Farm is to the left, before it is the road to Maud Heath's Monument.

Dist:0.2km<br/>Bremhill parish church (in this grid square) is to the right with part of the village to the left of it. Cherhill Hill is beyond with Cherhill Monument and the white horse (grey horse?) [[SU0469]]

Dist:0.2km<br/>Fine farmhouse at the top of Wick Hill. The sign advertises Monument Farm Shop - meat, sausages, pies and eggs.

Dist:0.3km<br/>A well used pasture, a corner of Monument Farm and the Cherhill White Horse away on the left [[SU0469]] Seen from the foot of Maud Heath's Monument.

Dist:0.3km<br/>Maud Heath gave money to have a causeway (raised pavement) built from Wick Hill to Chippenham so that locals could walk into market without getting TOO muddy. A monument was raised to celebrate her gift.

Dist:0.5km<br/>From the top of the hill by the monument to Maud Heath, fine views are offered to the northwest. Maud Heath was a 15th-century widow who wanted to provide for a route to get to market – Maud Heath's Causeway. More is here: http://www.users.zetnet.co.uk/chippenham/chippenham/maud.html

Dist:0.5km<br/>Part way up Wick Hill is a classic chocolate box style thatched cottage. Gorgeous in summer, but a North-easterly aspect makes winters sound less attractive.
