Tuesday for towns and villages...Ferriere-Larcon

Today we feature the sleepy little Southern Touraine village of Ferrière-Larçon which sits about 12 km from Le Grand Pressigny The village has links to an Irish saint, the Knights Templar and a former Roman settlement, so is steeped in history.
Walking around its pretty little streets today you could be forgiven for thinking,like many of our local villages that time has stood still.


There are a number of troglodyte houses scattered throughout the village and on Rue des Caves (below) you will find a whole street of them.
The village has an interesting church which dominates its landscape.

The last time we did a walk around the village was way back in 2012 - how time flies!
