    Malmesbury Facts – Did you know…

    1. The Flying Monk
      A stained-glass window at Malmesbury Abbey depicts the monk Eilmer, the ‘first man to fly’. He built a glider, leapt off the roof and broke both his legs. The Abbot refused to let him try again.
    2. Twynnoy & the Tiger
      In the 18th century a tiger escaped from a travelling circus. It attacked and killed bar maid Hannah Twynnoy who worked at the White Lion pub. Her grave sits in the abbey’s grounds.
    3. Any Old Iron Age
      The first settlement Caer Bladon appeared during the Iron Age.
    4. Abbey National
      Built in the 7th century, Malmesbury Abbey was one of the most important sites during the Dark Ages, where Alfred the Great regularly worshipped.
    5. Firsts
      The town is believed to have been the first capital of England and the country’s first King, Athelstan (Alfred’s grandson), was buried here.
    6. Making History
      William of Malmesbury was a monk who dedicated much of his life to creating a history of Britain. He is considered the ‘Father of English history’.
    7. War
      During the English Civil War the town changed hands a number of times as the parliamentarians and royalists took hold of what was considered a strategically important location.
    8. Pub or Castle?
      King Stephen built Malmesbury Castle in 1118. The Old Bell Inn, built in 1215 sits on the sight of the castle. Curiously, while various abbots objected to the close proximity of the castle, they didn’t mind having a pub nearby.
    9. On the Radar
      In 1939 a ‘shadow factory’ was built by the RAF. The 1,000 workers were kept unaware of exactly what they were building. They were constructing Radar, which helped win the Battle of Britain and save the country in WWII.

    About

    Flying monks, peaceful kings, escaped tigers, winning WWII, Malmesbury has a wonderfully madcap past. In the present it is a vibrant and lively town with excellent shops, great eateries and high-profile companies (Dyson anyone?).

    There are good travel links, extensive, scenic countryside and plenty of local amenities for work, rest and play.

    Leisure

    There is a cinema, local theatre group, museum and a leisure centre with a gym, sports hall, swimming pool, classes and more. The town has a weekly farmers market packed full of mouth-watering fayre and a busy events calendar with a number of festivals.

    Shoppers will find a great selection of indie stores and antique shops. In the spring and summer the Abbey House Gardens are full of colour with over 100,000 bulbs planted each year.

    Winding past, the River Avon is the perfect backdrop for some fresh air. The town also offers a great base for getting out and about too being just a short distance from the Cotswolds and Westonbirt Arboretum.
