Littlebredy, Dorset Weather
About Littlebredy, Dorset
Littlebredy gathers its stone cottages along the rising floor of a chalk valley where the light seems to linger, caught in the moisture of the rising springs. It lies 6.2 miles north-west of Chickerell (from Chickerell: bearing 326°T, OS grid SY 589 890), and is situated east-south-east of Long Bredy village. The River Bride rises nearby, feeding the expansive, reflective sheet of Bridehead Lake just a short distance to the south. High above the water, the landscape reveals its ancient, rugged character, as the terrain falls within the protected expanse of the Valley of Stones SSSI. Massive sarsen boulders rest upon the turf like forgotten monuments, indifferent to the passage of seasons or the encroachment of the sheep. To the east, the skyline is punctuated by the White Hill round barrow cemetery, where earthen mounds mark the silent resting places of earlier inhabitants. Littlebredy maintains an air of deliberate quietude, defined by the stark white of the flint and the persistent, low-frequency rush of water over stone. The surrounding downland offers a vast, open canopy, where the wind shapes the hawthorn into shivering, singular forms.
