Ludbourne Hall, South Street, Sherborne
Grade II Listed mid to late 19th century house. The original building dates to before the first reference to it in 1714 in William Sampson's will. It came into the hands of the Crutwell family, owners of the Sherborne Journal by the end of the 18th century. From then it passed to Robert Willmott, a successful owner of the neighbouring silk mill who was responsible for the substantial update. Subsequent owners included Charles Calder. In 1909 the Sherborne Urban District Council purchased the Ludbourne Hall Estate as a site for the much needed Town Hall and used it as such until 1948. After that, it had a range of light industrial activities before the property became an old people’s home prior to its existing renovation and conversion 2017-2019 into 7 dwellings.

Tadpoles by the bucketload
The small pond near level crossing in South Street is clearly a very healthy and attractive place for amphibians. Overall there were plenty of the little wrigglers in the water, catching some of the warm sunshine. See
