Castle Combe UK, I live and work either side of the village so get to have this as my short commute to the studio.

Wiki states “No new houses have been built in the historic area since about 1600”

My house was built in 1751. Well according to an engraving above my front door. Apparently one of the three oldest buildings in the village and it was built as the headmasters building.
