Castle Combe is a village and civil parish within the Cotswolds Area of Natural Beauty in Wiltshire, England. The village lies about 5 miles northwest of the town of Chippenham.

The village takes its name from the 12th-century castle which stood about 1⁄3 mile (500 m) to the north.

The 14th-century market cross, erected when the privilege to hold a weekly market in Castle Combe was granted, stands where the three principal streets of the lower village converge.
Next to the cross is one of Castle Combe's two village pumps.

Small stone steps near the cross were for horse riders to mount and dismount, and close by are the remains of the buttercross, built in the late 19th century from old masonry.

The market town prospered during the 15th century when it belonged to Millicent, the wife of Sir Stephen Le Scrope and then of Sir John Fastolf (1380–1459), a Norfolk knight who was the effective lord of the manor for fifty years. He promoted the woollen industry, supplying his own troops and others for Henry V's war in France. The parish was in the ancient hundred of Chippenham.

Notable houses include the Dower House, from the late 17th century and now Grade II* listed.

Castle Combe Village Filming Locations
The village was a location for the 1967 film musical Doctor Dolittle, but its frequently rainy summer climate, and the residents' irritation at the producers' modifications of the area for shooting that was severe enough to incite attempted sabotage – including by British Army officer (and future explorer) Sir Ranulph Fiennes – frustrated production.

Other productions filmed in Castle Combe Village include "The Murder of Roger Ackroyd", an episode of Agatha Christie's Poirot, and the films Stardust and The Wolfman. Throughout September 2010, the village was a key filming location for Steven Spielberg's production of War Horse.

Raymond Austin set the action of his book Find me a Spy, Catch me a Traitor in the village and at the Manor. The house of Alice Cartalet in the manga and anime series Kiniro Mosaic was based on Fosse Farmhouse, a guesthouse near Castle Combe.

Castle Combe in the Cotswolds was a filming location for the fantasy adventure movie Mariah Mundi and the Midas Box in 2012, and later filming location for a series of Downton Abbey.

This 4k Virtual Walk through Castle Combe England is just one in a series of English Cities, Villages and Towns that I've filmed.
