A beacon on Marlborough Common will be one of five bonfires in the area to be lit on Friday, May 8 to mark the 70th anniversary of VE-Day – Victory in Europe Day.
Starting with Barbury Castle’s beacon there will be a run of five beacons going eastwards with Marlborough the second in the line.
The beacon is being organised by the Marlborough branch of the Royal British Legion in conjunction with the Town Council.
