Marlborough Town Council
The steps of the Town Hall were invaded by wild things on Thursday, 28th September! On a beautiful sunny morning the Marlborough Literature Festival got under way with a bang with characters from 'Where The Wild Things Are' taking over the High Street with a number of flash mobs. Well done to everyone who took part and organised this event, it was great fun.
