Malmesbury displays a riot of colourful decoration to push back against the coronavirus blues
The January skies may be grey and the Covid-19 developments relentlessly grim but the townsfolk of a Wiltshire town are hitting back by turning their community into a riot of colour.
Front doors and windows in Malmesbury – population 5,000 – have been decorated with glorious images of spring and summer: flowers, butterflies and bunnies, vivid green foliage and multi-coloured bunting. Some have let their imaginations run wild, creating other-worldly tableaux of dragons, fairies, unicorns and mermaids.
