Summary edit
| Description |
English: North Dorset Trailway near Corfe Mullen If you go down in the woods today, between the A31 Wimborne - Bere Regis road and Brog Street, about 500 metres east of Corfe Mullen parish church, you will find this dead straight leafy path. Between 1860 and 1932 it carried passenger trains between Blandford and Wimborne and rails survived on this stretch to serve a sand quarry until about 1970. Today it is part of the North Dorset Trailway, a walking, cycling and horse-riding route gradually being constructed by the local council along the line of the Somerset & Dorset Railway. In 1893 most trains by this route, which then extended north to Bath, were transferred to a new line, seen as an embankment behind the trees on the left, to avoid a reversal at Wimborne when heading to or from Poole and the then young seaside resort of Bournemouth. |
