Cosmeston Medieval Village is a "living history" medieval village near Lavernock in the Vale of Glamorgan not far from Penarth and Cardiff in south Wales. Based upon remains discovered during a 1980s archaeological dig in the grounds of Cosmeston Lakes Country Park, it is a re-creation of 14th century peasant life in Wales in the Late Middle Ages.
The reconstructed village regularly plays host to groups of reenactors, who camp in authentic tents around the outskirts of the village, and perform displays of historical combat for the public.
The original Cosmeston village grew around a fortified manor house constructed sometime around the 12th century by the De Costentin family, who were among the first Norman invaders of Wales in the early 12th century following William the Conqueror's invasion of neighbouring England in 1066. It is unlikely that the manor house at the site was a substantial building and there is documentary evidence that by 1437 the manor house had already fallen into total ruin. Its precise site has just been located. The village would have consisted of a number of small stone round houses, or crofts, with thatched roofs, as depicted in the current reconstruction, and the village population would have been between 50 and 100 people at most, including children.
The de Costentin family originated on the Cotentin peninsula in northern France. They were the first lords of the manor and they called the village Costentinstune, which over time became known as Cosmeston. They built the original manor house and, perhaps, a few dwellings or small farms, but for the next two centuries it appears that little further development occurred.
Around 1316 the manor passed into the hands of the de Caversham family, also of Norman descent.
The buildings that have been excavated so far seem to be from the 14th century. It would appear that the de Caversham family brought a more designed approach to the development of the community and a better regulated and more compact settlement began to develop during their stewardship of the village.
There is little sign that the village continued to develop much past the later middle ages. Unusually, no Norman church was ever established in the immediate area, so by 1824 all that remained of Cosmeston village were four isolated crofts and the Little Cosmeston Farmhouse as shown on the Marquis of Bute's detailed maps of the time. It is quite possible that the majority of the villagers were wiped out during the Black Death plague of the 1340s or the later outbreaks, leaving Cosmeston a Deserted medieval village.
In addition to the plague, the villagers would have had to combat other difficulties. The land is low-lying and at the mercy of the many water sources that now feed the Cosmeston Lake. There is substantial evidence of drainage dykes, but even they would have struggled to keep the arable land free from waterlogging and constant flooding. Additionally the period was one of permanent political upheaval with intermittent resistance and armed conflict between several local Welsh leaders. In January 1316, for instance, Llywelyn Bren attacked Caerphilly Castle, and for the next two months there was conflict and devastation throughout the Glamorgan region.
By the 20th century all evidence of the village had vanished and local residents had no idea of its previous existence. When the Snocem Concrete works and the Cosmeston limestone quarry closed in 1970, the land was developed under Countryside Commission funding as a country park. During the landscaping of the new country park the first evidence of the medieval village was unearthed and an archeological exploration was undertaken.
The resulting heritage reconstruction has been described as the best representation of a medieval village currently available in Britain. In addition to being open to the general public, the village accepts school tours and archeological groups, together with staging of special events and re-enactments throughout the year
Cosmeston has been used as a film location for many productions, including a 2014 episode of the hit BBC TV drama series Doctor Who, Merlin and Galavant.

Thương hiệu Gucci được Guccio Gucci thành lập tại Florence, Ý năm 1921. Gucci là một trong những thương hiệu thời trang thành công nhất thế giới với các mặt hàng quần áo, phụ kiện và sản phẩm bằng da cao cấp.
Khi mới thành lập, Gucci chuyên về mặt hàng da mịn với phong cách cổ điển và duy trì phương pháp chế tạo thủ công truyền thống. Cùng với 3 người con trai là Aldo Gucci, Vasco Gucci và Rodolfo Gucci, thương hiệu đã mở rộng thị trường bằng các cửa hàng tại Milan, Rome và Florence. Lúc này, Gucci bắt đầu cung cấp các phụ kiện thủ công làm từ chất liệu da mịn như túi xách và giày dép.
Trong Thế chiến II, trước tình trạng thiếu nguyên liệu, thương hiệu chuyển sang sản xuất túi xách bằng vải cotton thay cho da. Lúc này, thương hiệu cho ra đời biểu tượng 2 chữ G đan vào nhau kết hợp với dải màu đỏ - xanh lá cây, biểu tượng sau này trở thành logo nổi tiếng của Gucci.
Năm 1970, đồng hồ, trang sức, cà vạt và mắt kính được bổ sung vào dòng sản phẩm của thương hiệu. Thời gian này, việc sử dụng biểu tượng 2-G bằng kim loại cho khóa thắt lưng và các phụ kiện khác thực sự tạo ra hiệu ứng mạnh mẽ trên toàn thế giới.
Năm 1994, Tom Ford trở thành Giám đốc Sáng tạo của Gucci. Với sự lớn mạnh của mình, trong những năm 1990s, tập đoàn Gucci sở hữu các thương hiệu nổi tiếng như Yves Saint Laurent Rive Gauche, Bottega Veneta, Boucheron, Sergio Rossi, sở hữu một phần Stella McCartney, Alexander McQueen và Balenciaga.
Năm 2005, Frida Giannini được bổ nhiệm vào vị trí Giám đốc Sáng tạo. Vị trí đó tiếp tục được thay thế bởi Alessandro Michele vào tháng 1/2015. Hiện tại Gucci trực thuộc Gucci Group, thuộc sở hữu của công ty thời trang Kering với gần 300 cửa hàng trên thế giới.

The Walnut Tree bar/restaurant at the corner of Ramirez Rd. and Hwy 70 glows bright in the afternoon sun. I have been meaning to take this shot for over a year, but there is only one place wide enough to pull out of traffic and I always remember too late or the light is not right or something. Finally got it.
Both walls you can see are painted the same color yellow.
