The modern road has been approximately following the line of the Dorchester to Southampton railway line, and is "named after Charles Castleman, a Wimborne Solicitor, who was responsible for building the original railway line" http://www.dorsetforyou.com/castlemantrailway . Here it begins to veer away to north. On the left is the junction with Waterloo Way into a housing estate whose roads bear the names of four London railway termini.
