Wiltshire Postcards: From Stonehenge to Marlborough

Stonehenge is the subject postcard collectors look for first in this collection. Built in stages between around 3000 and 1500 BC, the stone circle on Salisbury Plain remains one of the world's most recognisable prehistoric monuments, and it's formed the heart of a World Heritage Site since 1986.

Salisbury Cathedral is another landmark that appears often. Built between 1220 and 1258, it has the tallest church spire in the UK at 404 feet, added in 1320, and holds one of only four surviving original copies of the Magna Carta. Postcards of the cathedral's close and its famous spire are a regular feature of this collection.

Postcards from Marlborough, Devizes, Chippenham and other Wiltshire towns appear in this collection too, and we add new stock regularly.

FAQs

How old is Stonehenge?

Stonehenge was built in stages between around 3000 and 1500 BC, making the stone circle we see today thousands of years old. It's been part of a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1986.

Why is Salisbury Cathedral's spire so well known?

At 404 feet, added in 1320, Salisbury Cathedral's spire is the tallest church spire in the UK. The cathedral also holds one of only four surviving original copies of the Magna Carta.

What period are these Wiltshire postcards from?

Most date from the early to mid-1900s, though this varies by item. Where a postcard has been posted, the postmark on the back can help pinpoint an exact date, and we note this in the listing where we know it.

Do your Wiltshire postcards cover towns beyond Stonehenge and Salisbury?

Yes, postcards from Marlborough, Devizes, Chippenham and other Wiltshire towns appear across the collection, and we add new stock regularly.

What condition are the postcards in?

We photograph each postcard closely so you can see its actual condition before you buy. Due to their age, some general wear is normal, such as light creasing, corner wear, or toning, and condition can vary from postcard to postcard.

How can I date an old Wiltshire postcard?

A postmark is the clearest clue on a posted card. Where there isn't one, we look at the printing style, the stamp box design and the publisher's mark to estimate an approximate era.

Do you combine postage if I order more than one postcard?

Yes, we combine postage across all items on our store. We post worldwide, and UK orders of £50 and over qualify for free shipping.

How are the postcards packaged when posted?

Each postcard is placed within a protective sleeve and posted in a hardback envelope, to keep it protected in transit.

Is the postcard photo the actual item I'll receive?

Yes, every photo shows the exact postcard you'll receive, not a generic or stock image.
