Kingston Dorset Map

About Kingston

Kingston rests in a verdant fold of Dorset, its houses gathered like fallen leaves around the gentle curve of the land. It lies 5.8 km south-west of Sturminster Newton (from Sturminster Newton: bearing 219°T, OS grid ST 749 096), and is situated north-north-east of Hazelbury Bryan village. The air here seems to carry the scent of damp earth and the distant bleating of sheep, a quiet pastoral hum that has long been the heartbeat of this place. The subtle rise and fall of the surrounding countryside lends a sense of gentle enclosure, a feeling that the sky above, though vast, is a familiar, benevolent presence. Sunlight, when it breaks through the often-soft clouds, has a particular quality here, bathing the fields in a pale, ethereal gold that seems to seep into the very stones of the old farm buildings.
