Location: Blandford Forum is an attractive market town built around a crossing point on the River Stour. All but destroyed by the Great Fire of 1731, the centre was re-built in a grand style by the Bastard brothers, renowned Georgian architects. The town now offers a good range of shops, pubs and restaurants, a leisure centre, state schools for all ages, and the popular Bryanston independent school. Bus services connect with the coastal towns of Poole and Bournemouth, and (on weekdays) the city of Salisbury, all of which have railway stations, as does the county town of Dorchester. Dorset’s beautiful coastline is within 40 minutes’ drive.

Directions: From the Wimborne Road roundabout just outside Blandford, proceed down the hill towards the town centre. Take the second turning on the right, at the Fire Station, into St Leonards Avenue. Take the second turning on the left into Percy Gardens, and proceed to the head cul-de-sac, where the brick pillared entrance to Grenville Place can be found.
