The Shoe

The Shoe is a hamlet in the parish of North Wraxall, in the north-west of Wiltshire in England. It lies at the junction of the Fosse Way and the A420. The settlement is named after the former inn called The Horse-shoe and is about west of Chippenham and the same distance northeast of Bath.

Facilities

The Shoe Inn, marked on the 1:25,000 Ordnance Survey map, has become a private house, although a board for public notices and a postbox are still outside. There is a garage, a row of cottages and a few larger houses. Just off the Fosse Way, about 400 yards north of the A420 junction, lies the North Wraxall village hall, called the Community Hall, offering a playgroup and other amenities.
