Wimborne Minster is an atmospheric market town with a 1300 year old church of cathedral-like proportions. the stained glass windows, the organ with trumpets above and the astronomical clock alone are worth a visit.

Tarrant Rushton Airfield War Memorial

Highlight • Historical Site

Most people who pass by such a war memorial commemorating the victims will not have experienced the horrors of war firsthand. A dialogue invented by the writer Paul Harding might help. It is from a medieval detective novel, and the following exchange takes place:

"Tell me, brother, when you went to war in France with your little brother, were you happy?" Athelstan felt his heart leap. "Of course." He smiled thinly. "I was young then. My blood was boiling, and I longed for great adventures." "And when you found your brother dead and cold as ice on the battlefield and returned to England... what was there?" Athelstan looked out into the courtyard; it was slowly getting dark. "In the Gospel, Sir John, Christ says that at the end of the world, the heavens will shake, and the planets will fall to earth in blazing fire." Athelstan closed his eyes. He felt Francis's spirit very clearly. "When I found my brother dead in the field," he continued, "it was like heaven falling to earth for me."

Nice views from White Mill Bridge over the River Stour.
The bridge is a grade 1 listed 14th century stone bridge.
The National Trust managed White Bridge Mill is close by. A 18th century corn mill which still houses the old wooden machinery. You can visit the mill from 12:00 - 16:00 on weekends.
