Trickett's Cross, Dorset Weather
About Trickett's Cross, Dorset
Trickett's Cross draws its character from the shifting light that plays across the low-lying heaths of Dorset. It lies 0.8 miles east-north-east of Ferndown (from Ferndown: bearing 58°T, OS grid SU 089 009). The geography here is defined by the Parley Common SSSI, a rugged expanse where heather and gorse hold the sandy soil in a firm, ancient grip. A short distance to the north-east, the waters of Uddens Water carve a quiet, silver path through the landscape, feeding the damp, peaty margins of the earth. Trickett's Cross remains a place of transition, where the suburban edge meets the wild, unkempt breath of the heathland. Near the village, the low, grassy swell of a bowl barrow rises from the ground, a silent witness to the centuries that have passed over this terrain. The air here feels thin and clear, catching the salt-tinged breeze that travels inland from the coast to brush against the pine stands. Such remnants of the prehistoric world lend a solemn, enduring weight to the otherwise modest surroundings of Trickett's Cross.
