Background
History
The Fosse Way runs through the parish, and Roman villa sites associated with it have been found at Windmill Hill.

In the 16th century, two medieval fields were divided, which delayed inclosure until the 18th century, leading to the current patchwork of fields. The Charltons have been home to several of the ancestors of politicians in the United States of America. Henry Adams, of nearby Barton St David, and Edith Squire of Charlton-Mackrell were married in the parish church in 1609, and they were the ancestors of Presidents John Adams, John Quincy Adams, and Calvin Coolidge, as well as of Samuel Adams,β¦
