The village of Near Sawrey by Beausoleil

I kept reading descriptions and references to Near Sawrey. I took a while before I realized it wasn't near a village called Sawrey but rather the village was named Near Sawrey. A tiny but confusing village . . . home of Beatrix Potter who wrote "Peter Rabbit."

Local Accommodation and the Local Bakery in Lacock Village by Beausoleil

The Sign of the Angel, a restaurant with rooms and the Lacock Bakery are both historic buildings. We also discovered the bakery has quite a few other things for sale including ice cream cones. This was not an ice cream day, but good for future reference.

The George Inn - Sandy Lane by Beausoleil

We had driven to Sandy Lane to take pictures of thatched houses for later paintings. We arrived before The George Inn opened so we cheerfully parked in their parking lot and walked through the tiny and very picturesque village taking photos. It is a magical little village.

Reminds me of France but it is Broadway in Worcestershire County, UK by Beausoleil

We were surprised to find a town named Broadway in England. It just seems so New York City, but there it was tucked into the Cotswolds and utterly charming . . . as are all Cotswold villages. We spent a lovely afternoon puttering about there and had lots of company. Tourists have definitely discovered it; we did.

St. Patrick driving out the serpents by Beausoleil

Found this sign in Broadway in the UK and since St. Patrick drove the snakes out of Ireland, I'm not sure why he was working in Broadway but it was a fascinating sign.

Hawthorne blooming in the hills outside of town by Beausoleil

We were walking back to our car when we spotted the hills outside town dotted with blooming hawthorne trees. The countryside was covered with them and our landlady said they hadn't had such a good bloom in many years.

Ice Cream Man on Market Square by Beausoleil

Nearly every photo I've seen shows this same ice cream man so I couldn't resist taking his picture when he magically appeared for our visit. We didn't indulge since we had just eaten lunch. Next time . . .

The Market Cross on Market Square by Beausoleil

The Market Cross was supposed to remind the merchants at the market to be honest in their dealings. Honest folks don't need reminders and the others won't care anyway but it's very pretty.

West Street Beside the WWI Memorial by Beausoleil

The village of Lacock is a National Trust site and also site of many filmings, including the ever-popular Harry Potter set at Lacock Abbey. There are no overhead wires, satellite dishes nor antennae in town so with a layer of sand or dirt on the street, you are transported back hundreds of years.
