Swindon's Amazing Ma^^

The Great Western Maze is a 7 acre maze carved from
a living maize crop set in the glorious No rth
Wiltshire countryside.
The allure of a maze crosses all boundaries; the appeal to
children of being outside with a huge puzzle to solve is
equally enjoyed by adults.
The notion that it is fine to be lost with the absolute
certainty that you will be victorious is a great, good
feeling. But that does fully explain the mystery of the
maze, the courtyard with its world class puzzles and
games adds to the equation, but still there's a missing
ingredient.
Maybe it's the people that come to the maze? Opening times: 1 Oam - 6pm
