Lacock is a small place to navigate, and it’s impossible not to bump into the St Cyriac’s Church.

The wooden door of the entrance was pretty heavy; I got into the church and I was the only person around. The church was so quiet and peaceful, I felt like I could spend hours just sitting in the church even though I am not a Christian.

History of St Cyriac’s Church

The Church of St Cyriac was built in late 11th century by Edward of Salisbury (Lacock) and William of Eu (Lackham).

Only a few fragments of the church survive; the structure today was mainly constructed in around 1450 as the church was rebuilt thanks to prosperity of the wool and cloth trade during that era.

Parts of the church was built or rebuilt over hundreds of years to become the St Cyriac’s Church it is today. [reference]
