  • Description: This is a well known cruising area just outside Salisbury. It is located on the A36 between Southampton and Salisbury near the villages of Whiteparish and Alderbury.

    The Pepperbox is on the brow of Brickworth Down giving wide views to the east and west. It is an octagonal brick tower with a pyramid roof and two floors and was built in 1606 by Gyles Eyre, a local landowner. It can be counted as a folly but may have been used a lookout so that ladies could follow the progress of the hunt, away from the rain and mud. Its name comes from its resemblance to a pepper box or pepper pot, which would have been in use in the 17th and 18th centuries.
