nice ride

A beautiful ancient bridge lovely views in all seasons x

Known at The Cliff, it’s a short sharp rise!

Quiet, scenic country lanes at Furzehill.

There are documentary references to the building of "A Bridge on the River Stour adjacent to the White Mill" in the year 1175. Although the bridge you'll see today is probably a sixteenth century structure (somewhat hacked around by the Victorians). It is known, from an investigation of the foundations a few years ago, that the bridge stands on timber pilings which have themselves been carbon dated to the twelfth century. This is alleged to be the oldest bridge site in Dorset. Note the bridge warning plate "Any person wilfully damaging any part of this County Bridge will be guilty of Felony and upon conviction liable to be Transported For Life by the court"

Easiest and safest way to get across the river stour. The main road is narrow over the bridge, and heavily congested at times.

The gothic, five-storey, brick tower was built in 1750 by Lord of Horton Manor, Humphrey Sturt, who was an architect and a Dorset MP. The reason for its construction is not known but it’s possible Sturt planned to use it as an observatory for star gazing. At 43 metres high (140 feet) it was once claimed to be the tallest no-religious building in Britain. It’s now a Grade II* Listed Building. Visitors used to be able to enter the tower and look up to the top, as the floors had fallen away. Vodafone now use the tower for their masts and have undertaken restoration work. Their mobile phone signal masts are fixed to the sides, near the top of the tower. In the 1960s a cock fighting scene in the film The Mayor of Casterbridge was filmed at Horton Tower starring Terence Stamp and Julie Christie.
