Chilcombe Dorset Map

About Chilcombe

Chilcombe lies serenely in the Dorset countryside, a quiet pocket of earth where the land rolls gently towards the sea. It lies 6.5 km east-south-east of Bridport (from Bridport: bearing 108°T, OS grid SY 527 909), and is situated south of Askerswell village. The hamlet’s modest collection of dwellings often catch the soft, diffused light of the South West, bathing the stone walls in a warm, honeyed glow. History whispers here not in grand pronouncements, but in the enduring lines of ancient field boundaries and the quiet dignity of the few farmsteads that comprise Chilcombe. The air, often carrying the subtle scent of damp earth and distant hedgerows, speaks of a landscape shaped by centuries of careful husbandry and the slow, persistent turning of seasons. Here, the very stillness of the place invites contemplation, a gentle pause in the hurried march of the wider world.
