Location

The busy and vibrant Georgian town of Marlborough is made famous by its public school, Marlborough College. The earliest human habitation of Marlborough goes back to pre-historic times. After the Norman Conquest it became an important strategic site with a wooden castle standing on part of the site now occupied by the College. This became a more substantial stone castle by the 12th century and was for almost two hundred years used as a royal residence. Kings were married in Marlborough; a Treasury was established in the town; Parliament met here and ‘The Statute of Marlborough’ was passed there in 1267 and is one of the oldest law statutes in English law. The town was granted a royal charter by King John and became an important market town. Silver Street is where the merchants chosen to live and became one of the few streets that survived the great fires of 1653,1679 and 1690 Silver Street was renamed Siverless Street after the Jews left in 1682.
