Marked only on large-scale maps, its location is to the southwest of Oakhill Wood and the northwest of Conholt Park, about {{convert|8|mi|km|0}} south of Hungerford, Berkshire. Hippenscombe has a long separate history of its own, having been an extra-parochial area.[1] It was severely affected by the Swing Riots of 1830.[2] John Marius Wilson's Imperial Gazetteer of England and Wales (1870-1872) said of Hippenscombe: {{quote|HIPPENSCOMBE, an extra-parochial tract in the district of Hungerford and county of Wilts; adjacent to Hants and Berks, 4¼ miles NE of Ludgershall. Acres, 980. Real property, £545. Pop., 42. Houses, 11.[3]}}It was incorporated into Tidcombe in 1879.[4] References1. ^'Hippenscombe', in A History of the County of Wiltshire, Volume 16: Kinwardstone Hundred (1999), pp. 226-229, accessed 2 March 2012 2. ^The Swing Riots around Burbage at burbage-wiltshire.co.uk, accessed 2 March 2012 3. ^Hippenscombe at visionofbritain.org.uk 4. ^Hippenscombe at genuki.org.uk External links
