Lacock's Henry Fox Talbot invented the photographic negative at  the abbey in the 19th century. Inspired by the artistic talents of his family, Talbot's own methods of capturing light and image helped shape modern photographic techniques.

May Half Term: Photography Crafts

Follow the paths through the wildflowers and let your imaginations run wild. 

The Parkland will be divided into different play zones  so there's a something for everyone. Be a story teller or music maker in the performance area, create something special at the craft gazebo, burn some energy in the active zone and take a moment with the minibeasts in the nature play area. 

All activities are included in the cost of admission with no need to book. Summer of Play is sponsored by Starling Bank.

Join a festival of fun in the parkland, transformed into a play hub for the summer holidays.
