The Cholderton and District Water Company is a private water supplier, serving an area on the border of Hampshire and Wiltshire in the south of England.

It supplies about 2500 people over an area of around 21 kmĀ² in the parishes of Cholderton and Bulford in Wiltshire, and Shipton Bellinger, Thruxton, Amport and Quarley in Hampshire and is a private limited company with company number 357098.[1]
