Speaker: Dr Martin Papworth, for 37 years Archaeologist for the National Trust in SW England.
Lacock is one of the National Trust’s flagship properties. At its heart lies the close linking of the grade I listed Abbey, founded in the 13th century, with the village, a rare surviving example
of a medieval town which developed through the 14th, 15th and 18th centuries due to its role in the thriving wool trade.
