Distance

Charminster old Dorchester road.
This used to be the main road from Charminster to Dorchester when the main roads kept to higher ground to avoid marshy land on the flood plain of the River Frome. A new road was built centuries ago on a raised causeway across the meadows and it became the A37 running south of the village. This is now the C12 to Sherborne, straight , fast and notorious for road deaths.

We were overtaken by this woman and her dog on the footpath between Lower Burton and Charminster. The field had been recently ploughed and seeded and the footpath runs in one of the tractor ruts. The small building is a sewage pumping station.

Line of trees.
these trees had been very closely planted together along the footpath from Lower Burton to Charminster. We eyed them up as a potentially excellent bovine barrier if the bull in the field became too interested in us.
