Tours of Marlborough
Marlborough is the perfect destination to combine a bit of culture with a dash of relaxation. It’s a picturesque town in Wiltshire, on the old coaching route midway between London and Bristol. The town recently celebrated its 800th anniversary and it’s steeped in history. Visitors should go to the beautiful 17th century merchant's house, built after the Great Fire of Marlborough in 1653 and to the magnificent town hall with its Renaissance style architecture.
Lockeridge Dene
Nestled near the charming town of Marlborough, Lockeridge Dene offers a tranquil escape and a surprising connection to the world-famous Stonehenge. This picturesque woodland area is believed to be the source of the sarsen stones, the massive grey pillars that define Stonehenge's outer ring.
Wansdyke
Stretching for 60 miles, and partly crossing the Marlborough Downs, the Wansdyke is an enigmatic earthwork built around 5th-6th century AD. Some say it defended against Saxon invaders, perhaps even King Arthur himself. This historical mystery sparks imaginations to this day.
Merlin's Mound
Nestled in the grounds of Marlborough College, Merlin's Mound stands as a silent testament to a long and fascinating history. Though legend whispers it holds the bones of the wizard Merlin, this earthen giant is actually a Neolithic monument, dating back thousands of years. The second largest of its kind in Europe, the Mound offers a glimpse into a bygone era while remaining a cherished landmark of the town.
