OOOD deal has been published at various times on the 

 history of Lacock Abbey, but very little has been written 

 on its architectural history, or the uses of the different apartments 

 of the monastery now incorporated in the present house. The 

 present owner, Mr. C. H. Talbot, has contributed a number of 

 interesting short papers on the subject from time to time to this 

 Magazine ; but of recent years so much that was covered up when 

 they were written has been revealed by the removal of plaster, and 

 later walling, and by excavation, as to render il necessary that some- 

 thing more should be said. It is intended in this paper to deal 

 exclusively with the monastic remains, leaving for some future 

 time the consideration of the later work, which in its way is quite 

 as interesting as that of mediaeval date.
