YOUR LOCATION AND YOUR PERSONAL DATA

If you are in Malmesbury please allow Explore Malmesbury to track your location so we can show you exactly where you are. You will be able to pin point and put yourself at the places you want to Explore - and you will have much more fun!

If you are using Firefox or another browser which disallows tracking content, please disable this feature when you want to use Explore Malmesbury. Otherwise our maps won't be able to be displayed.

If you are visiting Explore Malmesbury from outside Malmesbury you may need to refesh your screen to see the map of Malmesbury instead of a map showing where you live!
