Known for
Wimborne Minster (the remarkable collegiate church with its chained library and quarter-jack clock figure), the Saturday market, and a beautiful Dorset market town
A little history
Wimborne Minster's collegiate church — begun in the 11th century — has the Chained Library (one of only four surviving in England, books chained to prevent theft) and the quarter-jack — a grenadier soldier figure who strikes the quarter hours. The church's tower gives extraordinary Dorset views.
The Minster is magnificent and the Chained Library is extraordinary. The quarter-jack for the clock-watching. The Saturday market for local Dorset produce. The Stour riverside walk.
