To commemorate the 80th anniversary of the end of World War Two the exhibition features the many aspects of the war which affected everyday life in wartime Malmesbury.
Exhibits cover rationing, civil defence, evacuees, prisoners of war and much more. Items are from our own collection or loaned by local contributors. All shed a light on how World War Two affected the lives of the townsfolk of Malmesbury.
The photograph is of the ‘Wings for Victory’ event on May 15th 1943.
