Emergency services were seen racing to the incident on A3102 at around 11.20am, with an air ambulance landing in a field nearby. A collision investigation unit also attended the scene.

A spokesperson for Wiltshire Police said: “We were called to The Green at around 11.20am today (28/10) following a report that a van had collided with a wall.

“The driver of the van, a man in his 60s, was sadly pronounced dead at the scene. His next of kin has been informed and our thoughts are with them at this very difficult time.

“Our enquiries into the cause of the collision are ongoing, but we are hoping to speak to anyone who either saw the van prior to the crash, or who may have dash cam footage of the vehicle.
