Longbridge Deverill is a village and civil parish in Wiltshire, England about 2.5 miles (4.0 km) south of Warminster. It is on the A350 primary route which connects the M4 motorway and west Wiltshire with Poole, Dorset.

The parish is in the Deverill valley which carries the upper waters of the River Wylye. It includes the village of Crockerton and the hamlet of Hill Deverill (a civil parish until 1934); these are collectively known as the "Lower Deverills" (the Upper Deverills being the upstream villages of Brixton Deverill, Monkton Deverill and Kingston Deverill).
