The village of Iwerne Minster. Cared, loved, created and restored by a devoted lord of the manor. Amongst his efforts include the old village club house, the war office (notice board with the winged messenger of Mercury engraved in the pediment) and the war memorial. The old vicarage is apparently haunted while the trickle of the river Iwerne decorates the lanes edges.
Start in the stunning village of Iwerne Minster amongst its beautiful buildings, little stream and even some ghosts. The village was loved and greatly cared for by the once Lord of the Manor, James Ismay. His father made rich by founding White Star Line (the Titanic owner). Pass the impressive manor of Wolverton, now known as Clayesmore School. Sometimes better known as the home of Del Boy’s chandelier.  Join the Fontmell Brook through the fields, forests and farms to Sutton Waldron, passing the site of a Roman villa. Return via an ivy arch at the old Wolverton Lodge back to the Iwerne valley, all in the shadow of Hod and Hambledon Hillforts.
