Chettle Dorset Map

About Chettle

Chettle lies quietly amongst the chalk downs of Dorset, a place where the sky seems to hold a particular, soft light. It lies 9.8 km north-east of Blandford Forum (from Blandford Forum: bearing 44°T, OS grid ST 952 134), and is situated south-south-west of Farnham village. The village itself is a scattering of stone cottages, their thatched roofs softened by the years, gathered around a village green that breathes with the quiet life of the countryside. The earth here, chalky and yielding, lends a pale hue to the surrounding fields, fields that have been worked and shaped by generations. A gentle stream, the River Tarrant, whispers its way through the parish, a silver thread in the tapestry of the landscape, feeding the water meadows that shimmer with dew in the early morning. The church of St. Mary, a modest yet sturdy presence, stands as a sentinel, its ancient stones bearing witness to the enduring spirit of Chettle.
