Cosmeston Medieval Village
Cosmeston Medieval Village is a restored and reconstructed village from the medieval period situated near Lavernock in the Vale of Glamorgan.
It was when the Cosmeston Lakes Country Park was being developed in the late 1970s that the archeological trust uncovered evidence of a 600-year-old village.
Today visitors can travel back in time to 1350 to see how life was lived then. The village has free admission and is open all year round.
