Malmesbury Abbey

Reviewed By C8127VHanthonys

The church largely consists of the nave of what was once a great medieval abbey (definitely what most would people would consider cathedralesque in scale. Set in a lovely Cotswolds' town the abbey is of interest for its own sake as it retains a great sense of presence with (the Romanesque (Norman) entry porch being particularly impressive) and for some of the treasures it contains notably the mediaeval Malmesbury Bible (a vast 4 volume work) which is normally on display. When I visited there was an interesting display of contemporary illuminated art works which added to the interest. The building has its own restaurant but there are numerous (and generally good) catering outlets in the surrounding town. A fascinating place the abbey is well worth a visit by anyone interested in the history of the church in the UK

Athelstan Museum

Reviewed By trevorsP2151LJ

What struck me immediately was the cheery and genuine welcome from one of the volunteers. Next, it was obvious that people of all ages enjoy visiting and that all age groups are catered for. Pull-out drawers contain model reconstructions, or Anglo-Saxon clothes for dressing up. There are push button maps to show where each historic feature is located in the town. From Iron Age millstones to World War 2, everything was explained in an accessible way, from guessing games to interesting facts. I likes that nothing was dumbed down. Full marks for making such good use of limited space and presenting history with love - and for free!
