Bekonscot: Virtual Village

Website of the Day: Monday August 9th

>> Bekonscot: Virtual Village
I have vague (but very happy) memories of visiting Bekonscot (in Beaconsfield, Bucks) when I was little – It’s the world oldest model village, created in 1929 and forever stuck in an idyllic 1930s timewarp with miniature farms, fields, castles, churches, beaches and village greens all linked by one of Britain's largest model railways. While the real Bekonscot is celebrating its 75 anniversary you can use the site to Create your own Virtual Model Village, one thatched-roof cottage at a time. Therapeutic and strangely addictive!
