Welcome to Wilton Community Carnival Website. Please keep calling back
Wilton is a small town just outside Salisbury in Wiltshire, England. It is actually much older than Salisbury; settlements go back to the 11th Century and it was once the Ancient Capital of Wessex. Wilton still retains this title!
