England's secret cowboy town
The town of Laredo is filled with cowboys and saloons in the style of the Wild West, and it's lived in part-time by history lovers.
Laredo is a functioning Wild West town built in southern England, lived in part-time by a dedicated community. At the weekends, residents adopt full period dress, and leave the 21st Century behind. It has been around for decades, but recently a devastating fire threatened to destroy Laredo for good.
