Hippenscombe
Hippenscombe is a small settlement within the civil parish of Tidcombe and Fosbury, Wiltshire, in the southwest of England. Marked only on large-scale maps, its location is to the southwest of Oakhill Wood and the northwest of Conholt Park, about south of Hungerford, Berkshire.
Hippenscombe has a long separate history of its own, having been an extra-parochial area. It was severely affected by the Swing Riots of 1830.
John Marius Wilson's Imperial Gazetteer of England and Wales (1870-1872) said of Hippenscombe:
It was incorporated into Tidcombe in 1879.
