Situation Blandford is a popular market town; located on the banks of the River Stour and was substantially re-built in the mid 18th century and is one of the finest examples of Georgian architecture in the south of England. A visit to the town's quaint museum tells the intriguing story of the rebirth of the town, following the extensive fire in 1731. The town is well served with shops, supermarkets, tea and coffee houses as well as a library, doctor's and dentist surgeries and a number of individual clothes and gift shops.

Education This area is well known for its good schools, particularly in the private sector, which include Bryanston, Clayesmore, Milton Abbey and Knighton House, as well as excellent primary and secondary schools in the town.
