Click on an individual item name to view the full detail of the entry.
| Avebury Manor and Gardens | Avebury Manor was the subject of a unique collaboration with the BBC. The lives and stories of the house's many owners were brought to life by the use of interior design, including the creation of many new pieces. |
| Avebury Stone Circle | World-famous stone circle and on-site museum at the heart of a prehistoric landscape |
| Blue Plaque walk | This circular walk, which starts at the Town Hall at the east end of the High Street, provides a gentle stroll of about 2.5km and shows you some of the history of Marlborough through the nine Blue Plaques that are displayed throughout the Town. |
| Cooper's Meadow | A stretch of easily accessible chalk stream and the adjoining water meadow in the centre of Marlborough. |
| Silbury Hill | The largest man-made mound in Europe, mysterious Silbury Hill compares in height and volume to the roughly contemporary Egyptian pyramids. Probably completed in around 2400 BC, it apparently contains no burial. Though clearly important in itself, its purpose and significance remain unknown. |
| Stonebridge Meadow | Stonebridge Meadow, part of Stonebridge Wild River Reserve, is a short walk from the centre of Marlborough, situated between St Martin’s and London Road. |
| West Kennet Long Barrow | Neolithic tomb or barrow, situated on a prominent chalk ridge, near Silbury Hill, one-and-a-half miles south of Avebury. |
