About Woodville

Woodville, a quiet corner of Dorset, exhales a particular brand of rural calm. It lies 5.0 km south of Gillingham (from Gillingham: bearing 185°T, OS grid ST 803 215), and is situated east of Stour Provost village. The gentle arc of the land here, softened by centuries of cultivation, often catches the afternoon sun in a way that makes the distant hedgerows gleam like threads of spun gold. Though small, Woodville possesses a certain gravity, a sense of enduring presence that seems to emanate from the very soil. Its lanes, often bordered by ancient oaks whose branches reach out like welcoming arms, lead to scattered farmsteads and cottages that speak of a life lived in close communion with the earth. The air, especially after a soft rain, carries the faint, sweet scent of damp soil and wild grasses, a constant reminder of the natural world that cradles Woodville.
