Almer, a Dorset hamlet, breathes the quietude of the South West. It lies 8.0 km south-south-east of Blandford Forum (from Blandford Forum: bearing 159°T, OS grid SY 912 989), and is situated north-east of Winterborne Zelston village. The lanes here, often bordered by ancient hedgerows, seem to gather the soft, diffused light characteristic of these chalk downlands, painting the surrounding fields in hues of muted gold and verdant green. A sense of enduring peace pervades Almer, a place where the slow turning of seasons dictates the rhythm of life, and the distant bleating of sheep can be heard drifting on the breeze. The very air seems to carry the scent of damp earth and wild grasses, a testament to the agricultural heart that has long sustained this corner of England.
