Three Gates, a quiet hamlet in Dorset, rests within the gentle folds of the South West of England. It lies 9.0 km south of Sherborne (from Sherborne: bearing 183°T, OS grid ST 633 077), and is situated west-north-west of Hermitage village. The landscape surrounding Three Gates is a study in muted greens and ochres, where the sky often hangs in a soft, pearlescent light, a quality that seems to imbue the very air with a contemplative stillness. Small lanes, bordered by ancient hedgerows that whisper tales of centuries past, lead to scattered farmsteads and the modest cluster of dwellings that comprise Three Gates. The land here speaks of a long agricultural heritage, its fields yielding their bounty under the patient gaze of the heavens, a quiet testament to enduring rural life.
