In this issue

Spring at Stourhead is a magical time. In our March issue, we look at Stourhead’s lost treasures and a new project that will conjure up a picture of the garden as it was in the 18th century. We discover how women in Wiltshire fought for the vote, find out how the legend of Salisbury’s dancing hares has inspired new sculptures and look at some of our most eccentric buildings: follies. You can also meet Salisbury MP John Glen and actress Gwen Taylor. We travel the county too, bringing you features on magical Marlborough, Sutton Veny and the Deverills. Elsewhere, Robert Murphy looks at the how the NHS crisis is affecting the county. Finally, Wiltshire Council tells us about a scheme to plant 10,000 living tributes, and we find out why Chippenham is celebrating Alfred the Great. Enjoy!
