Wimborne St GilesA small scattering of houses in the north-eastern part of the county Wimborne St.Giles is the estate village at the centre of the Shaftesbury estate (home of the Ashley Coopers). The well known memorial in London to the 7th Earl of Shaftesbury the statue of Eros is aligned with this village, as it is here where the 7th Earl lies buried. | ||||||||||||||

The photographs shown here were taken late-afternoon in mid-April, a long period of high pressure giving a hazy sun. Starting at the Church of St Giles (built 1732) the gallery follows a short walk around the village green, past the village school, up the eastern side of the River Allen a for short distance before finally returning back down the western side of the river. | |||||||||||||||
