Designated in 1983, the Cranborne Chase & West Wiltshire Downs AONB covers 983 square kilometres, spread across 11 local authorities and 104 parishes. The AONB project is overseen by a partnership of organisations, of which Wiltshire Council is a member. As 61% of the AONB falls within Wiltshire Council’s administrative area, the Council is host authority to the project and employs a team of countryside professionals, based in offices in Cranborne Village, to oversee the implementation of the AONB Management Plan. Wiltshire Council is also represented on other advisory and working groups associated with the AONB.
Further information is provided by visiting the Cranbourne Chase and West Wiltshire Downs website.
