4. The Churchyard & Setting
The Lyre-Gate: The entrance to the churchyard is quite picturesque, sitting near the chalk stream (the Winterborne) that gives the village its name.
The Parish Room: Located in the churchyard, this was originally a boys' school. It has a quirky history—local boys from a nearby industrial school used to be marched there in pairs for lessons.
