One of a group of streets (Norfolk, Essex, Kent, Suffolk, Sussex) named after counties – the others I think follow the South Eastern coast line from Norfolk in the North to Sussex in the South.
The word ‘Wiltshire’ derives from Shire of the Wylye.

Wylye Close is in Quidhampton, which is about 3 miles west of Salisbury. It’s named after the river Wylye, which is nearby. Wylye itself is derived from a Welsh word meaning ‘tricky’. |
