The heroic Thomas Edward Lawrence was born in the Welsh village of Tremadog, Carnarvonshire, but moved around as a child before leaving the UK for service in Cairo in 1914.

He found fame leading the Arab rebellion against the Ottoman Empire during the First World War, sparking the 1962 film Lawrence of Arabia starring Peter O'Toole in the titular role.

Now, his birthplace, a Grade II-listed property now called Snowdon Lodge but also known as Ty Lawrence or Gorphwysfa, has gone on the market for £1,375,000.

The Lawrence family lived at the home for around 18 months in 1888 and 1889, before moving to the Galloway region of Scotland and then to Brittany in France and Jersey.

Snowdon Lodge is described as having 'enormous potential', with 14 rentable rooms, a teaching room, lounge, games room, dining rooms and a catering kitchen, having undergone extensive refurbishment works in recent years.

The birthplace of legendary Lawrence of Arabia has gone up for sale - more than 2,000 miles from the desert.

Memorabilia and commemorative items are also dotted around the property - which is run as group accommodation - for guests to enjoy, including a plaque and a new artwork paying tribute to the archeologist.

Current owners, Carl and Anja Borum, commissioned international sculptor David Williams-Ellis to design a bronze statue of Lawrence, as part of a plannedexhibition and visitor attraction on the site.

The former home of the famed officer - who died just two months after leaving the army in a motorbike accident - is on the market with Fleurets, and is an incredible opportunity for history buffs.
