Welcome to Durrington, Wiltshire

 

 

ADVERTISE

your business here from as little as 20p per day

 

 

Welcome to DurringtonWilts.co.uk.

Our first year attracted over 3,000 visitors and we would like that to increase in the second year. You can help with this by sending in anything you think Durrington people would be interested in. That includes businesses because this is where people will find you.

 

Starting in March and every month thereafter you will be able to download and listen to the DurringtonWilts PodCast.

The plan is to have a 30 minute pod cast featuring local music and other items of interest, possibly including interviews with local businesses, every month.

If you have a band or you are a local performer with a demo please get in touch via the contacts page. This is your chance to be heard and the best of the acts may have a chance to play at a showcase in London.

There will also be an opportunity for businesses to have a small advert on the pod cast. Please call for information.

If you like this site and want it to continue then it must have advertisers. Alot of time and expense goes into these pages so if you have a business or service to offer then please go to the "Include Me" or "Contacts" page and get in touch. Your business doesn't have to be in Durrington just be able to offer services to Durrington & Larkhill.

 

THOUGHT OF THE WEEK

When I came back to Dublin I found that I was courtmartialed in my absence and sentenced to death in my absence, so I said they could shoot me in my absence. - Brendan Behan


 

Things to check out:

"Kids Stuff" - Some great games including a section that is self updating giving you new games continuously.

"Interactive Map" - Take your "cursor" on a trip around Durrington and find out what's where.

"True Stories" - You've got to have a look here and if you like the stories let us know so we can publish more of the same. New Steve Hannant story coming soon.

 

The main idea of this site remains the same and that is to give you a one stop internet path to the past, present and future of Durrington. Your memories, your needs of today and what's happening in the future, and if you have a particular local concern or point to make then please email us. It is meant to be interactive but it only will be if you give your input.

Also, DurringtonWilts is the new host of www.durringtontowncouncil.co.uk. Read the minutes of the meetings, contact the council with your points and ideas and see local news updates & old photos of Durrington.
