St. James, East Chelborough
"St.
James' is one of those Dorset churches which is awkward to find,

very long drive and adjacent to a private house."

Holy Trinity, Chilfrome
"Chilfrome is a
delightful little hamlet set amidst water meadows. There is no

St.
Osmund, Evershot
"Evershot is one
of those intriguing settlements that seem too large to be a village yet
really too small to be called a town.......At the higher end of the
road, overlooking the houses, the church has been placed for all to
see."

St. Mary, Frome St.
Quintin
"This must be
almost unique in Dorset because the church is in the corner of a field
with no road access to it."

St. Francis, Frome Vauchurch
"The church is
placed end-on to the road so that the little bell turret is the first
thing that greets one. It is surrounded by a surprisingly large
churchyard containing an impressive sundial."

St. Mary, Halstock
"This

little church lies at the base of Bubb Down next to a splendid 17c manor
