Marlborough and Eastern Wiltshire

The first volume of John Chandler’s long-term project (Wiltshire: landscape and people) to write the history of every town and village in the county. Each of the seven parts will offer succinct but informative histories of a group of parishes, complemented by exquisite, specially commissioned illustrations, and facsimiles of historic maps. Volume 1 covers 34 parishes, from Aldbourne in the north to Tidworth in the south and Avebury in the west, including Marlborough, Ramsbury and Ludgershall.
