King’s Meadow – hidden treasure

Hidden behind Church Farm in Kington Langley, Wiltshire, King’s Meadow offers an idyllic venue for a quintessentially English country wedding reception. We offer a bespoke service with a venue that can adapt to your individual requirements.

 

Boasting views across to the White Horse of Cherhill in the far distance and located opposite St. Peter’s Church, the seven-acre organic wild flower meadow is surrounded by mature trees and hedges giving privacy and an intimate atmosphere. Ample land for any number of marquees falls gently away to a small copse, brook and bluebell walk.

 

Church Farm offers not only a blank canvas for you to create the wedding of your dreams but also a homely atmosphere where you can feel relaxed and comfortable on your wedding day.

 

Why 'King's Meadow'?

In 2010 a local metal detector enthusiast was searching in the meadow and he found a copper alloy and enamel shield bearing the three leopard lions of Richard The Lionheart. Once officially dated as being from 1198 – 1369 King’s Meadow was given its name.

 

Inset: The arms of England as shown on the second Great Seal of King Richard I "the Lionheart".  The seal is dated c. 1157. These arms were used by his successors until 1340.
