Places to see in ( Sturminster Newton - UK )
Places to see in ( Sturminster Newton - UK )
Sturminster Newton is a town and civil parish in the Blackmore Vale area of Dorset, England. It is situated on a low limestone ridge in a meander of the River Stour. The town is at the centre of a large dairy agriculture region, around which the town's economy is built. The larger part of the town (Sturminster) lies on the north side of the river, and includes most shops and services, whilst to the south is the smaller Newton. Between these two areas is a wide flood plain. The town was the home of poet and author William Barnes, and, for part of his life, Thomas Hardy. The town has 43 shops, a primary and secondary school, and a school and college catering for children with special educational needs.
A market is held in the town on Mondays. One of the largest cattle markets in England used to be held here, but the market was closed in 1998 and now in its place stands a housing estate and a 300-seat community arts centre called The Exchange. The town is part of the historic West Country Carnival circuit.
Sturminster Newton was recorded in the Anglo Saxon charter in 968 as Nywetone at Stoure, and in the Domesday Book as Newentone. Newton refers to a new farm or estate, and Sturminster to a church (minster) on the Stour. Originally the two parts of the name referred to the settlements on the north and south of the river, but were combined to distinguish the town from Sturminster Marshall and other Newtons.
Hidden on the hill above the bridge over the river are the ruins of Sturminster Newton Castle, a manor house rather than a defensive building. The 14th-century building stands on a crescent shaped mound which could be the site of an Iron Age hill fort. The town and castle were part of Sturminster Newton hundred.
Sturminster Newton is situated at a historic fording point on the Stour. The ford was replaced in the 16th century with a six-arch stone bridge, and a quarter kilometre embankment crossing the flood plain. The bridge was widened from 12 to 18ft in 1820. A 19th-century plaque affixed to the bridge states that anyone damaging the bridge would be transported to Australia as a felon. On the south bank of the river is the watermill which was restored in 1980 and is now a museum.
The town centre is built in a mixture of styles, including 17th- and 18th-century thatched cottages, Georgian stone buildings, and 19th-century brick buildings. Set back from the main road is the market square and parish church of St Mary , which was rebuilt in 1486 by the abbots of Glastonbury. The church was heavily modified in the 19th century, but the carved wagon roof remains.
Sturminster Newton civil parish covers about 4,550 acres (1,840 ha) at an altitude of 45 to 119 metres (148 to 390 ft), with the highest ground being in the southeast. The geology of the parish comprises Oxford clay in the northwest, Corallian limestone and sands in the northeast, centre and southwest, and Kimmeridge clay in the southeast.

Eastern Beach Reserve Swimming Enclosure (Geelong)
Eastern beach in Geelong and St Leonards beach on the Bellarine Peninsula appear to be the places to head to if you want the best chance of enjoying a swim in the cleanest possible water.
Standing to the east of our city on Corio Bay is our much loved and magnificent Art Deco masterpiece, Eastern Beach. It has been a favourite destination for families since opening in the late 1930s and it is as popular today as it was back then.
Eastern Beach was fully restored during the 1990’s as the first part of our major Waterfront precinct rejuvenation. In recent years the enclosure has had its children’s pool upgraded as well.
The swimming enclosure is one of Geelong’s most well-known icons. This large double platform wooden structure complete with shark gate sweeps in a half circle around 8 1/2 acres of sea water. The enclosure has a diving board, floating islands and slides and can hold thousands of swimmers, with a delightful sandy beach backing onto the children’s pool.
The children’s pool is a shallow cement pool which includes a magnificent fountain in the centre. The pool has been a significant learn to swim centre of the city for decades and is extremely busy on warm days.
Eastern Beach has a beautiful art deco kiosk building constructed of red brick that is home to one of the city’s finest dining experiences on its upper level. The kiosk also sells plenty of ice cold drinks and ice creams for visitors to the beach. The large al fresco dining area located out the front is a fantastic place to relax while the kids have fun in the pool. The paved area is also home to a lovely lifesavers and change pavilion with red terracotta tiles. A huge playground for the young is on the east side in the parkland and is a favourite all year round.
Rising to the Eastern Beach road above the parkland is one of Geelong’s most striking architectural features, a white Spanish staircase. The stairs are quite spectacular and offer breathtaking views of the Eastern Beach promenade and Corio Bay. At the half way point, there is a large fountain with crane and tortoise statues. These are replicas of the originals which now live in the Botanical Gardens for safe keeping. The stairs are one of Geelong’s most popular locations for wedding photographs.
Another must see for visitors to the area is the historic home Corio Villa. This home dates back to 1856 and overlooks Eastern Beach on the corner of Fitzroy Street and Eastern Beach Road. Recently the property has become luxury accommodation, giving the public the first chance ever to enjoy this incredible home. Corio Villa offers one of the city’s most beautiful photo opportunities. The adjoining properties along Eastern Beach road are also some of the city’s most expensive and exclusive addresses.
Surrounded by a fairly steep grassed slope and some of the city’s most beautiful palms, peppercorns and Cyprus trees the reserve is a favourite for picnics, BBQs, sun baking and ball games. The parkland becomes an amphitheatre several times during the year hosting several major events. The Denis Walter Christmas Carols by the Bay spectacular is held there every December. Many of the city’s huge public events have been held at Eastern Beach in the past, including ceremonies for the 2000 Olympic Games Torch Relay and the 2006 Commonwealth Games Baton run. Richie Boulevard which links Eastern Beach to Bellarine Street was home to the Geelong Speed Trials for several decades. Today, the speed trials have been reincarnated as the Geelong Revival and take over the area in late November every year.
Christmas and Boxing Day holidays are also huge days at Eastern Beach and nearby Eastern Park. Tens of thousands of families flock to the parklands for picnics and BBQs that have now become a Christmas tradition.
