Sturminster Marshall

Sturminster Marshall is best known in Dorset for White Mill, an 18th-century watermill on the River Stour. Built in 1776 and now cared for by the National Trust, the brick mill retains its machinery and recalls the local economy that once depended on river power. The village occupies the low Stour valley in eastern Dorset, where water meadows, farmland and hedged lanes shape the setting. Its position between Blandford Forum and Wimborne Minster places it in a long-settled inland part of the county, away from Dorset’s better-known coast.
