Areas we cover around Rowde: Devizes, Bromham, Rowde Hill, Sandy Lane, Sells Green, Seend and Melksham.
Rowde feels like its own place despite being so close to Devizes. The George and Dragon is the village's pub and restaurant with rooms, and the village hall, built in 1887 as a reading room and coffee tavern, hosts community groups and events. Rowde CofE Academy, the primary school, was rated Good in all areas by Ofsted in February 2024, and Silverwood School, a special school also rated Good, is built around an 1812 country house. Older children usually head into Devizes, where Devizes School was rated Good across the board in a report published in November 2024.
Several 17th century buildings survive in the centre of the village, and the George and Dragon itself is a former coaching inn. St Matthew's Church has a 15th century tower, with the rest rebuilt in the 1830s, and its font was designed in 1850 by the Victorian architect Sir Matthew Digby Wyatt, who was born in Rowde. Most homes are modern brick built houses on estates and smaller developments, with older properties concentrated around the village core.
The Kennet and Avon Canal passes just south of the village, and the famous Caen Hill flight of 29 locks climbs between Rowde and Devizes, sixteen of them in a single straight line up the hill. The towpath is a well known walk or cycle ride towards Devizes or west towards Sells Green. By road, the A342 links Rowde with Devizes and Chippenham. Devizes has no station, so residents use Chippenham, on the Great Western Main Line with trains to London Paddington every half hour, or Pewsey and Westbury, which also have direct Paddington services.
