Description
The village with its twisted streets, gabled roofs and timber buildings is one
of the prettiest in England. The houses span the centuries, dating from medieval
times to the 18th century, but none is later than about 1800. Lacock Abbey offers
much to see, with a museum dedicated to the work of Henry Fox Talbot, the pioneer
of photography who once lived here. Lacock Abbey and Lacock village are both now
cared for and run by the National Trust, and are often used as a filming location
for period dramas.
