I grew up in Wroughton. Lots of pubs but the best one is the Check Inn and that's a trek.

Few scalleys about here and there, a crap chippy, good chinese and an average indian!

We always come through wroughton on the way to football, It does not look too bad. As you come into wroughton, the first pub on the right looks really nice although I can't remember the name of it. I did'nt think the chippy there was too bad.

 Ace...although it will doubtless lose a bit of its separate feel once the Front Garden gets developed.....a walk across the fields for a few beers in Wroughton on a summer night is always a pleasure.

 If its carnival you want, then Pewsey is the best relatively local.

If you want to feel like your own house is a mansion, go and look round Pewsey.

My new job is next to Pewsey (well for 3 weeks anyway)

Next to Pewsey is fine.

In Pewsey equates to trying to survive in the world's biggest shithole.

The old bit of Wroughton is pleasant. Not so sure about the new bits though. The general rule is that if it's on a slope, it is nice, and if it is not, it is not so nice... with a few exceptions obviously.
