The village of East Knoyle is of particular interest to walk around, as the family home of Jane Seymour, Henry VIII's second wife. It was also the village where Sir Christopher Wren grew up and where his father was the local vicar. There is also a stone alongside the main road which records that Wren was an "Architect, Mathematician and Patriot".
