You might know Marlborough for it's pretty paved streets, shopping scene and quiet countryside, but one man from the town is determined to show it off like you've never seen before.
Bob Holman is a photographer who has noticed that there is a wealth of historical features that belong to the town that have been hidden away over the years.
He works mainly in black and white, and on his phone, and aims to show people what you can do if you look closely enough.
“You wouldn’t know about them unless you knew about them if that makes sense”, he told this newspaper.
The idea behind his new project, ‘Marlborough Unseen’ was to capture what nobody has seen, and is on the lookout for dungeons, sewers and underground storage areas.
Bob said: “I’ve had a number of DMs with some very nice secret places.
“I have in the back of my mind, if I can get enough people to come and see these different spots I’d like to plot a kind of subterranean map.
“I’ve done projects before where I took pictures of Marlborough rooftops and had people come and say to me: 'I’ve lived here all my life, where on earth is that?'
“And that’s the point, as people don’t look around them sometimes.”
Although he kept some the spots he is planning to visit a mystery ahead of the big reveal when he is finished, Bob has had plenty of suggestions from the community about places he could explore.
One person responded to his social media callout suggesting the photographer visited what used to be a Monsoon on the High Street, where a cellar and a bricked up door way lies.
They said: “It took me ages before I was brave enough to go down there.”
Bob has gone beneath the surface of his projects more than once during his career, exploring as many nooks and crannies as possible and squeezing into spots even the owners of buildings avoid.
He recently photographed an abandoned oven at the Castle and Ball restaurant in Marlborough, where he crawled through a small hole in the building to find it and staff waited outside.
Bob said: “It was very dark, very quiet and damp in there.
“I wouldn’t say I was scared but it is quite a strange feeling.”
