I think This Is Wiltshire has been one of the only publications to stay on top of local Harry Potter filming. Here’s an article that includes a picture of the set as well as mentioning something about what the Lacock Abbey is being used for:

“The churchyard of St Cyriacs in Lacock had been transformed for a scene from the new film, believed to be called The Philosopher’s Stone, complete with imitation gravestones and a sign proclaiming the area as the parish of Godric’s Hollow.”

Godric’s Hollow is referenced early in Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone and where Harry lived with his parents:

“What they’re saying,” [McGonagall] pressed on, “is that last night Voldemort turned up in Godric’s Hollow. He went to find the Potters. The rumor is that Lily and James Potter are — are — that they’re — dead. “
