Charminster

An attractive town on the River Cerne, it has a 12th century church with an impressive pinnacled tower added in the 1400s. Inside are some striking memorials to the Trenchard family whose noble mansion, Wolfeton House, stands on the northern edge of the town. A lovely medieval and Elizabethan manor house, it is surrounded by water meadows near the meeting of the rivers Cerne and Frome. The house contains a great stone staircase, remarkable plaster ceilings, fireplaces and carved oak panelling – all Elizabethan – some good pictures and furniture. Opening times are restricted so it best to enquire at the tourist office in Dorchester.
