Bowden Hill

Bowden Hill is a village in Wiltshire, England, 3.5 miles (6 km) south of Chippenham and 1 mile (2 km) to the east of Lacock. The village consists of about 50 houses, a pub, and a small industrial estate.
==Origins of the name==
Bowden Hill was historically called 'Bowdon Hill' according to early maps.〔(Wiltshire Community History - maps of Lacock and surrounding area )〕 There are a number of theories around why the village got its name. One reason is that the name comes from the old English words 'bow', meaning bow shaped, and 'dun' meaning hill. However, alternative theories suggest the name comes from a corruption of 'bdl' (meaning dwelling) into 'bow' meaning 'hill slope on which are dwellings'. Another theory from 'Wiltshire Collections' by Aubrey and Jackson suggests that the name means 'the winding hill'.〔(Notes on Wiltshire names )〕
