Wick Farm is a working farm which once
belonged to the Lacock Abbey Estate, with a barn dating back to the 15th
Century. Situated in a very quiet spot 1.5 miles from the National Trust
Village of Lacock, it has its own lake 'Silverlands', well known for
coarse fishing, notably Carp, Bream and Tench.
Lacock Abbey, a thirteenth century
Nunnery, eventually became the home of William Henry Fox Talbot, a pioneer
in photography and there is a Museum of Photography at the Abbey. Today
Lacock is famous for being the venue for many period drama productions,
most notably 'Pride & Prejudice' and 'Moll Flanders'. Lacock is ideal
for visiting the City of Bath, or the historical houses of Corsham Court,
Bowood House, Longleat and Stourhead. Three of Wiltshire's famous White
Horses carved into the chalk hillside are close by, and worth a visit.
There are several Golf Courses nearby and
in the market town of Chippenham just 5 miles away there is a Sports
Centre offering various facilities including a health suite. The
surrounding countryside of course, gives excellent walking opportunities. |
