Wimborne Minster and Chained Library

Highlight • Religious Site

This church has all manner of interesting features and is well worth visiting. For a start the King of Wessex is buried here; he ruled from 865 to 871, which gives you an idea of the age of this fine church. There's also a rare exampled of a chained library within the church's walls, a store of books on chains to prevent theft.

Eye Bridge, Wimborne

Highlight • River

Eye Bridge in Wimborne is on the River Stour. It has plenty of parking right next to the river, however, it can quickly fill up on a summers weekend.
Eyebridge is a lovely spot to Paddleboard, you can head up stream for a good 5+ miles and there’s also a pub stop off at the end (Coventry Arms) if you fancy it.

Nice views from White Mill Bridge over the River Stour.

White Mill

Highlight • Monument

White Mill is an 18th-century water powered corn mill near Sturminster Marshall in Dorset on the River Stour which is in the care of the National Trust. The first record of a mill on the site is from Domesday Book; the current watermill was rebuilt in 1776 and extensively repaired in 1994. It still retains its original elm and applewood machinery though this can no longer be used.
The mill and house are both built of brick with tiled roofs. The mill house has two stories whist the mill has three with an attic. The house has a single story lean-to extension and a timber porch. The machinery and mill stones remain but the two water wheels are no longer present.
The present mill is thought to be on the site of an earlier one, probably one of those mentioned in Domesday Book. The current mill was rebuilt in 1776 on older foundations. The tenancy of the mill was the held by successive members of the Joyce family. The mill worked under water power until 1866 when a severe winter flood caused damage that was deemed beyond economic repair. The miller at the time was also a baker and he converted half of the mill to run from a portable steam engine to supply his bakery with flour. The last miller retired at the end of the 19th-century and the mill was not used again

Shapwick Village Centre

Highlight • Settlement

Not to be confused with Shapwick in Somerset, this Shapwick is a sweet little village on the banks of the River Stour. A short walk from Badbury Rings hillfort, there's plenty of see and do in the immediate area.

You can hike to the Rings, walk east to the stunning Kingston Lacy estate or wander along the riverbanks to see what wildlife you can spot. Or, all three!
