Swyre Dorset Map

About Swyre

Swyre rests in the gentle folds of Dorset's landscape, a place where the ancient chalk downs meet the softer hues of the coastal plain. It lies 7.7 km south-east of Bridport (from Bridport: bearing 127°T, OS grid SY 526 882), and is situated west-south-west of Puncknowle village. The very air here seems to carry the scent of sun-warmed earth and distant sea, a subtle perfume that lingers as you wander through its quiet lanes. Here, the buildings of stone and thatch seem to have grown organically from the land, their walls softened by the passage of seasons and the light that often bathes them in a pale, honeyed glow. The village green, a modest expanse of close-cropped grass, offers a tranquil heart to this small community, a place where the shadows lengthen and the day draws to a peaceful close.
