Teffont
Teffont is a civil parish in the south of Wiltshire, England, consisting of the villages of Teffont Magna and Teffont Evias. It is in the Nadder valley, north of the river, about west of Salisbury. The parish was created in 1934 by combining the two Teffonts. The population taken at the 2011 census was 248.
Teffont has a parish council and is in the area of the Wiltshire Council unitary authority, which is responsible for almost all significant local government functions.
The two former parishes each had a church, and both continue in use, although they are only about three-quarters of a mile apart; they are both Grade II* listed buildings. Until 1922 Teffont Magna was a chapelry of Dinton, and its modest church dates from the 13th century. The church at Teffont Evias was rebuilt in the 1820s, when an imposing tower was added.
Part of Chilmark Quarries, a former stone quarry and now a Site of Special Scientific Interest, is in the far southwest of the parish.
