HOBBES FESTIVAL 2026
The THoM Society are working on plans for our second and hopefully an annual festival in Malmesbury, 27th to 29th March 2026. This year will see the report of the 2025 archaeology dig on the site of Hobbes family home and including finds and a talk by Cotswold Archaeology. Still in the planning are some younger people and children's activities. We hope to repeat the guided walks, but with a different twist and are working on a more social evening event too.
