Beech tree-lined road, near Blandford, Dorset

Near Blandford, Dorset view map

"Drive along this wonderful Beach tree lined road and see the sunlight filter through their leaves. Stop and wander round iron age Badbury Rings. The impressive mile-long avenue of beech trees was planted in 1835 as an anniversary gift for Lady Bankes. It led as the main driveway to their manor house Kingston Lacy. Drive along or stop at the Rings to admire the changing seasons of the trees.

See http://www.hiddendorset.org/index.php/hd/gem/hd1141.html for more information.

See the map for precise location and an idea of how long the trees go on for!
