In this episode of my series “ Walks in Dorset”, I take a 6 mile circular walk from Wimborne Minster to Canford Magna & back. Once again I am accompanied by my Whippet, Logan.
I park my car at one of the many Pay & Display car parks in Wimborne Minster and make my way to explore the magnificent Minster Church of St Cuthburga. It is an amazing Minster with so many interesting things to see including a Chain Library & an Astronomical clock!
After passing by the site of the old Queen Elizabeth Grammar school and the Model Town, I head out into the countryside following a footpath Eastwards along the banks of the River Stour to Eye Bridge.
At the bridge, I cross the river and head South through a delightful meadow called Eye Mead and over an old Roman road towards the A31. At this point, I cross the a road & join the Stour Valley Way and head Westwards past Merley Farm.
Crossing the A31 again (this time using an underpass!), I walk through Dawson's Hole - on the Southern bank of the River Stour - and cross over the B3073 to go under the splendid Lady Wimborne Bridge (which used to carry the old railway line over the carriage drive to Canford Manor).
I follow the carriage way to Canford School where I get to see Canford Magna Church before crossing the River Stour again - this time using a suspension bridge.
My final leg takes me back towards Wimborne Minster on the Northern Bank of the river to my final destination - The Coach & Horses pub in Wimborne Minster.

I use a GOPRO HERO 7, 8 or 10 Black Action Camera (sometimes with a Gimbal) & a Rode microphone (either a “Shotgun” or a Rode Wireless Go) together with a Canon Powershot SX530 HS.
