Map of Marston, UK
Until 1894 Marston (and neighbouring Worton) were part of Potterne parish.
It has a bus stop, a phonebox, a post box and a green. There's a Methodist chapel on one side of the green. Some very beautiful old buildings exist in the village, most of which are in a conservation area. The farms in the village are gradually disappearing and being replaced by equestrian activities. There's a small pond on the village green which has some interesting things living in it and occasionally by it. Beside the pond is a big old log fashioned into a seat where wildlife can be seen.
The nearest pub is the Rose and Crown in Worton. The nearest shop is the Post Office in Potterne. The local Anglican church is Christ Church, Worton.
In 2014 Good Energy applied for planning permission to create a 4.9MW solar energy installation near the village.
