Marden House was home to the Wharfinger who handled traffic on the  Wilts and Berks Canal, which terminated here.  When local people raised funds and obtained grants to renovate the building and convert it to a community and arts centre, Prince Charles gave his support by visiting in 1988 (see the plaque on the front of the building), and the centre was opened in 1990

 Marden House may surprise you: visitors often find it has more charm and more possibilities than they imagined.  Providing a high degree of seclusion, the Marden House Centre is suited to a wide variety of uses, from private parties, wedding celebrations, business meetings and  exhibitions to public performances
