The History of Lacock Abbey, also known as Locus Beatae Mariae, is a book written by George Witham in 1806. The book provides a comprehensive account of the history of Lacock Abbey, a medieval nunnery located in Wiltshire, England. Witham explores the origins of the abbey, its founding by Ela, Countess of Salisbury, and its subsequent history under different abbesses. The book also covers the dissolution of the monasteries under Henry VIII and the subsequent use of the abbey as a private residence. Witham provides detailed descriptions of the architecture and layout of the abbey, as well as the daily life of the nuns who lived there. The book is an important historical document that sheds light on the religious and social history of medieval England. It is a valuable resource for historians, scholars, and anyone interested in the history of monasticism and religious life in England.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
