Frampton is a small, idyllic village in West Dorset, situated on the A356 Dorchester to Crewkerne road, just 5 miles to the northwest of Dorchester. Set in the park land of the former Sheridan estate, Frampton still maintains its rural aspect and character.

The village is surrounded by beautiful countryside and has many footpaths and bridleways for walkers.

The river Frome passes through Frampton on the south side of the village at Sandway Bridge.

There are several places to park and walk and the cyclepath from Dorchester to Maiden Newton runs through the park and the nearby hamlet of Southover.

 

There's lots more information about Frampton and the surrounding areas at the Frampton & Southover website .....
