This sweet wishing well is actually the source of the River Wey, which flows south and enters the Channel at Weymouth. Unlike the sources of many rivers which are found in boggy fields, this has been rather harnessed for public enjoyment and is said to have been a favourite location for King George III.

It now resides in the stunning gardens of a tearooms, and is a lovely place to rest whilst on a hike in the area. The Jubilee Trail, a long-distance hiking route traversing Dorset, passes right by.

Simply beautiful and delicious. A great experience!
If you are in the area, you should take the time and have some tea.

Hey, I'm 25 and studying in Graz. Between coursework, work, and lectures, I barely have any time for myself. Last week, I stumbled across playjonny.com.de while just browsing the internet. I tried it out and was surprised how relaxing it is. No stress, no constant ads – you can just switch off. I usually play late at night when everything is quiet. I got really lucky once and won a few euros – not much, but it felt like a small victory after a long day.
