A mid-sized town in west Wiltshire, UK. Population ~20,000. Although there is enough to do in Warminster, it is still regarded as a boring town by the youths, who prefer to visit the neighbouring county town of Trowbridge and the city of Bath in Somerset.
Untill recently, large new buildings have not been allowed planning permission within the town in order to keep the picturesce feel of a historic market town.
On the edge of Warminster is an army camp - Battlesbury Barracks - which is home to the Land Warfare Center, abbuting which is the Sailsbury Plain Training area (SPTA) which is large enough to exercise a battlegroup and which is dotted with Royal Artillary firing ranges.
