A village built in the late 1900's on a site that cost (then) £5000, by Clough Williams-Ellis
It took a long time to complete, and some of the buildings were reclaimed and transported to the new site.
I had from 12.30 to 4.30 to have a 3 course luncheon and a photo session, whilst looking around.
Some of the buildings are holiday lets.
The day was a little dull with an occasional shower.
The meal was the best part.
A wiki link with more info about the village.
