WALKS IN DORSET at OWERMOIGNE (& THE POXWELL STONE CIRCLE) (4K)

In this episode of my series “Walks in Dorset”, I take a 6 mile circular-ish walk from Owermoigne which is located about 6 miles East of Dorchester. Once again I am accompanied by my Whippet, Logan.

I parked my car in the the centre of Owermoigne and started off with a look at the church of St Michael followed by a wander around the village.

My route into the countryside initially took me Westwards before crossing the A352 Dual Carriageway and uphill along a section of the Hardy Way.

There were some stunning views to enjoy at the top of Moigns Down including a sighting of the sea. I then headed West along a ridge to my next destination – the Poxwell Stone Circle (an ancient barrow surrounded by sarsen stones).

After exploring a small quarry and crossing the A353, I passed by Pixon Barn at which point I headed North to the tiny hamlet of Poxwell.

My final leg took me Eastwards to rejoin the Hardy Way back to Owermoigne.
