    Hiking

    Situated on the edge of Cranborne Chase plateau, Tarrant Gunville is a pretty village with plenty of history. The parish it sits within has hundreds of ancient round barrows and the village church has sections dating back to the 15th century.

    The village was also home to Eastbury Park and its palatial mansion which, despite being built at great expense, only stood for around 40 years. It was demolished after gaining no owners after the original died. There are some remains still standing, which were once let out to the son of Josiah Wedgewood, the famous English potter.
