A year ago in brilliant sunshine, you may have enjoyed seeing Cotswold Archaeology digging in the front garden of the URC in search of the family home of Thomas Hobbes. This year, on the 28th March Cotswold Archaeology are displaying the finds from their dig.
They are giving an illustrated talk about the dig which will start promptly at 12.45pm, to fit in with Philosophy Conference lunch break, so please arrive in good time. Tickets are £5 each and are available to purchase online via Malmesbury Town Council’s website here or go to https://malmesbury.gov.uk/what-s-on/thomas-hobbes-festival/whats-on/thomas-hobbes/cotswold-archaeology-the-dig or search for Hobbes under “What’s On”. Tickets may also be purchased from the counter of the Tourist Information Centre at Malmesbury Town Hall.
Parking can be limited in Malmesbury, so if you are visiting, we suggest you consider parking either in the Cross Hayes Car Park SN16 9BZ in the centre of Malmesbury in front of the Town Hall, or in the Long Stay Car Park SN16 9JT. The latter accesses the Town from behind Malmesbury Abbey which is next to The Old Bell Hotel, up a fairly long set of steps, so you might wish to drop off passengers in town before parking.
