Healing Herbs Family Trail at Lacock Abbey, Fox Talbot Museum and Village

800 years ago, the nuns of Lacock Abbey couldn’t just pop down the doctors to buy their medicine, so they grew their own. Find out more on our fun family trail.

The Abbey, located at the heart of the village within its own woodland grounds, is a quirky country house of various architectural styles, built upon the foundations of a former nunnery. Visitors can experience the atmosphere of the medieval rooms and cloister court, giving a sense of the Abbey’s monastic past.

The museum celebrates the achievements of former Lacock resident, William Henry Fox Talbot, famous for his contributions to the invention of photography.

This event is free, but normal admission charges apply for the venue.
