A bright crisp day, and enroute back from Wales, spent a couple of hours this afternoon looking around Lacock Abbey and Village, Nr Chippenham in Wiltshire. A beautiful unspoilt 13th century village, often used for TV productions such as Cranford, Pride and Prejudice and Harry Potter to name a few.

| The Abbey |
 |
| An interesting "Apple" tree in the Abbey grounds. (For attracting birds) |
 |
| Christmas Garlands hang in the Cloisters |
 |
| The rear view, and lovely light in the windows of the tower |
 |
| Into the Village, and a look at the Church. |
 |
| Light streaming in and reflecting on the walls |
Through the village, and a very unusual Ford, more like a wet lane. Not ideal for cars but fun for welly clad visitors and dog walkers.
 |
| Lunch at The Bakery |
Then decided to go on to Avebury Circle, in the hope of decent afternoon light. Being a holiday, it was heaving at Avebury with families all running around. Not ideal for photography! Looking east towards the circle as we approached from a carpark, a boring blue sky.....
But THEN looking west ........some pinky skies
Which got better and better.....

| Some strange stone hugging people appearing from the tree clump |
With the road crossing between the two main sites, always difficult to get a shot without a van or a car in it. Several attempts at this next one to manage without cars on the road.
