Lacock Abbey
Lacock Abbey in Wiltshire is a place where medieval cloisters and Elizabethan staircases have found themselves repurposed as some of the most recognisable film sets in Britain, yet the real magic lies in its quiet dignity and centuries of accumulated character. It was also the home of William Henry Fox Talbot, a pioneer of photography, giving the abbey an almost uncanny connection to the art of capturing images.
