Lacock Abbey was founded in the early 13th century by Ela, Countess of Salisbury, as a nunnery of the Augustinian order. It remained a nunnery until the suppression of Roman Catholic institutions in England in the 16th century. Today, it is looked after by the National Trust (paid entry/National Trust membership) and also houses the Fox Talbot museum of photography.

Some of the scenes in Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone and Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets were filmed at Lacock.

Cafe with outdoor seating is free to public.

A great view of the abbey at Laycock. A place to gather thoughts (or energy) before the slog up Bowden Hill.

Vandring

Lacock Abbey was founded in the early 13th century. It remained a nunnery until the 16th century, when it was sold and became a private home. Today it's most famous as the home of William Fox Talbot. In 1835, he made and developed what was possibly the first negative within the house.

The National Trust own and manage the property. It's paid entry for non-members. You do get a good view of the house from here and the meadow between here and the house.
