Stourhead in Fall: Setting of Pride and Prejudice 2005

Gentle readers, frequent contributor Tony Grant of London Calling sent this link showing the autumnal colors at Stourhead in Wiltshire. Fans of the 2005 film will recall Mr. Darcy's proposal to Elizabeth in the rain, while they are sheltered under the Temple of Apollo at Stourhead. This short BBC video shows how beautiful the gardens are this time of year.

A visual trip to Lacock Village

Gentle Readers, Contributor Tony Grant of London Calling has just returned from several tours in which he escorted travelers to England around Jane Austen country. He has taken some wonderful images of Lacock, the picturesque village in Wiltshire that has served as a backdrop in so many costume dramas, including as Meryton in 1995s Pride and Prejudice and the recent PBS productions of Cranford. Enjoy!
