From The Official Guide, Salisbury & Wilton Rural District, Wiltshire, c.1950:
Great Wishford
Covering an area of 1,680 acres, Great Wishford is on the Wylye – at this point only a stream – six miles from Salisbury and three miles from Wilton, but served by its own railway station. The Parish Church of St. Giles is of flint and stone, with an embattled western tower with eight pinnacles, containing a clock and five bells. The Registers date from 1558. The interior of the church is interesting, containing the elaborate tomb of Sir Richard Grobham, who founded the almshouses here, and in the walls of the church are details of the price of bread “per gallon” ranging from the years 1800 to 1920, and in 1946 to 1948 details of bread rationing.
