Winterbournes are chalk rivers that flow in winter and often dry out in summer. The South Winterborne rises in Winterbourne Abbas (the use of Winterbourne or Winterborne seems dependent on locality), and flows here through Martinstown (also known as Winterborne St Martin) before joining the Frome in West Stafford. http://www.dths98.co.uk/james/winterborne/river.php
