How to find Us?
The Athenæum is situated on the High Street in Warminster, in the heart of town. There are several nearby car-parks and the train station and local bus stops are within a short walking distance.
where to park?
If you visit us by car, the nearest car park is the Western Car Park (BA12 9NJ) alongside the Civic Centre accessed off Sambourne Road. There is a pedestrian walkway leading to the zebra crossing on the High Street opposite the Athenæum. Alternatively, there is the Central Car Park (BA12 9FF) next to the library where you can access the High Street via Three Horseshoes Walk.
Both Car Parks are operated by Wiltshire Council, and chargeable during the day via pay and display machines or the MiPermit App (which can be downloaded below).
Parking is free after 6:00pm. Parking charges are available here: wiltshire.gov.uk/parking-warminster

A darkly comic tale of secrets, love, and unexpected heroes that turns a quiet village upside down. Nicola Coughlan (Bridgerton), Éanna Hardwicke (The Sixth Commandment), and Siobhán McSweeney (Derry Girls) star in this gripping National Theatre production of John Millington Synge’s classic play. When a young man arrives claiming he has killed his father, he becomes an unlikely local hero—winning hearts and admiration… until a second stranger arrives and everything changes. Filmed live on stage, this darkly funny and electrifying story of youth, identity, and reputation is not to be missed.![]()
