For centuries weathervanes have kept people in touch with the elements, signalling those shifts in the wind, which bring changes in the weather. This simple device has grown into an English tradition which can say something about their owners, adding interest to the landscape.

Street Scene, Winterborne Whitechurch
The minor road meets the A354 Salisbury to Dorchester Road. The village name appears in early records as Winterborne Blaunchminster. Winterborne stems from the river which starts to flow through the village during the winter months and continues until early summer. The word Whitechurch may come from the colour of the church or the chalky hills near it.
