It is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade I listed building, and is a redundant church in the care of the Churches Conservation Trust. It was declared redundant on 1 December 1971, and was vested in the Trust on 8 March 1973. The church and adjacent manor house are built of bands of flint and stone. Most of the church dates from the 13th century, although the tower, with its pinnacles and gargoyle, and porch were added in the 15th. The interior of the church includes a melon-shaped 12th century font, believed to date from an earlier church on the same site. Current use (bookings) & voluntary activity All Saints currently enjoys permission from The Church of England for six Sunday services each year and four additional services on an occasional basis.

  • Lord Digby Married His Third Cousin Lady Theresa Anna Maria Fox-Strangways, Daughter of Henry ​ Fox-Strangways, 3Rd Earl of Ilchester, in 1837
    Accession Number: 1978/2.21 ​ Artist: John Hoppner ​ Object Creation Date: circa 1778-1810 ​ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jane_Digby Jane Elizabeth Digby, Lady Ellenborough (3 April 1807 – 11 August 1881) was an English ​ ​ ​ ​ aristocrat, famed for her love life and lifestyle. She had four husbands and many lovers, including King Ludwig I of Bavaria, his son King Otto of Greece, statesman Felix Schwarzenberg, and a Greek general ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ (Christodoulos Hatzipetros). She died in Damascus, Syria, as the wife of Arab Sheikh Medjuel el Mezrab, ​ ​ who was 20 years her junior. Jane Elizabeth Digby was born in Forston House, near Minterne Magna, Dorset on 3 April 1807,[3] ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ daughter of Admiral Henry Digby and Lady Jane Elizabeth. Jane's father seized the Spanish ​ ​ treasure ship Santa Brígida in 1799 and his share of the prize money established the family fortune. ​ ​ ​ ​ Marriages, scandal, and affairs Considered promiscuous for her times, Digby was first married to Edward Law, 2nd Baron Ellenborough ​ (later Earl of Ellenborough), who became Governor General of India, on 15 October 1824. At the time of her marriage, she was described as tall, with a perfect figure. She had an attractive face, pale-gold hair, wide-spaced dark blue eyes, long dark eyelashes, and a pink complexion. They had one son, Arthur Dudley Law (15 February 1828 – 1 February 1830), who died in infancy. After affairs with her maternal cousin, Colonel George Anson, and Prince Felix Schwarzenberg, she was ​ ​ divorced from Lord Ellenborough in 1830 by an act of Parliament. This caused considerable scandal at the time. Digby had two children with Felix; Mathilde "Didi" (born 12 November 1829 Basel and raised by ​ ​ Felix's sister) and Felix (born December 1830 Paris) who died just a few weeks after his birth.

    www.WaterProjectsOnline.com Water Treatment & Supply Alton Pancras Elimination of Stand Alone Source providing additional security of supply and additional strategic storage within the water distribution network in West Dorset by Joe Edmunds BEng(Hons) ACSM lton Pancras is a borehole source located between Dorchester and Yeovil which historically has on average provided a public water supply (PWS) of just under 2.5Ml/d. The abstraction regime at Alton Pancras has Avaried in recent years as the licence, operating agreement and requirements for stream support have been under review. The PWS licence is currently a simple 4.5Ml/d daily licence and 890Ml annual (2.44Ml/d) licence. Historical production has varied between a maximum weekly supply of around 3.5Ml/d when water is supplied into neighbouring distribution networks to a minimum base load supply of around 1.9Ml/d needed to meet local demands. Whilst the neighbouring distribution networks can be supplied from elsewhere the local demand cannot.

  • War Memorials in the Cerne Valley Is a Summary of What Is Known About Them
    The following information about the men named on the war memorials in the Cerne Valley is a summary of what is known about them. If you would like more details about any of them, please contact the Cerne Historical Society. CERNE ABBAS AND UPCERNE GREAT WAR OF 1914 TO 1918 There are 14 Cerne Abbas men who died in the Great War and one from UpCerne. Most were in their 20s. The three killed in 1914 were among the Regulars who sustained enormous casualties in containing the German advance and gave the vital time necessary for Britain and its Allies to mobilise for the struggle ahead. Local people remember being told by their fathers that there was a general exodus of young men marching into Dorchester and Sherborne to join the colours following the Declaration of War on 4 August 1914. Edward Henry Young Edward joined the 1st Battalion Dorsetshire Regiment in 1904. He lived in part of what is now 38 Long Street, Cerne Abbas (The Crown). His father was a Thatcher. The 1st Battalion was in Ulster at the outbreak of the war, but moved immediately to the front in Belgium and fought at the 1st Battle of Mons and at Le Cateau in the subsequent retreat. He was killed in The Battle of the Aisne on 16th September 1914 aged 27 and has no known grave. He is commemorated on the La Ferte-sous-Jouarre Memorial in Seine-et-Marne. Horace Collier Horace’s family lived in what is now 6 Abbey Street and in Back Lane, Cerne Abbas.

  • Piddle Valley Neighbourhood Plan 2018 to 2033
    Piddle Valley Neighbourhood Plan 2018 to 2033 As modified by the Independent Examiner November 2016 Post Examination Draft–January 2018 Produced by Piddle Valley Parish Council with the help of local residents Piddle Valley Neighbourhood Plan – 2018 to 2033 How this Plan came about Back in 2012, the idea of a Neighbourhood Plan for the Piddle Valley was discussed at the Parish Council meetings. A small working group was formed. Having done some research and looked at other examples, the group wanted to be sure that there was enough support for a Neighbourhood Plan, as it was clear that producing a plan would take a lot of community time and effort. So the group put articles in the Piddle Valley News and Views to try to explain what a Neighbourhood Plan was, and what it could achieve, and organised presentations at the school in October that year. They gave local residents the chance to vote whether or not they wanted a Neighbourhood Plan. They explained that - If nothing is done, then future planning decisions that affect the Valley will be taken by the District Council as they see fit. If the Valley has its own Neighbourhood Plan, which sets out our wishes for things we both do and do not wish to see occur, then the District Council have to take those views into account in reaching their decision. The Plan will take a lot of time and work to prepare, including further consultations, and must eventually be approved by a referendum of the Valley residents. It is important therefore for the Parish Council to know that there is support in principle for the work involved.
