Keevil is a village and civil parish in Wiltshire, England. The parish population has varied little since 1801.
After the Second World War the barracks of RAF Keevil were used as a temporary home for Polish refugees. Today the small Ministry of Defence airfield at RAF Keevil is used for gliding at weekends.
