3Lacock Village
Lacock An Ancient Village. You may not have heard of Lacock Village, but it’s highly likely you will have seen it. Perfectly preserved for over 200 years, the medieval Wiltshire village is a go-to filming location for costume dramas and feature films, with its most famous appearances including Downton Abbey, Pride and Prejudice, and several of the Harry Potter films. Lacock Village is believed to have begun life as a Saxon settlement – its name originating from the word ‘lacuc’ meaning ‘little stream’, in reference to Bide Brook which runs through the village. In 1232, Lacock Abbey was founded on the village’s manorial lands by Ela, Countess of Salisbury, and thanks to her efforts, the village was granted a market and developed a thriving woolen industry throughout the Middle Ages.
