A "model" village in Dorset, the lord of the manor didn't like the peasants village so he demolished it and built a prettier one :rolleyes:

Wow! I love it. It gives me the feeling of the European books I read. The vegetation is rich!

Everywhere seems so peaceful and homely.

Very nice @zigs Somehow the cars seem out of place there:) I hope the lord of the manor allowed the peasants to vacate their homes before before plowing them down:eek:

It's peaceful @darkrebelchild Not sure about homely, most of them are probably second homes, empty during the week, the locals can't afford to live there.

The cars do look out of place @Beverly, there are some places that don't allow cars, Clovelly for instance.

I heard that more families were evicted than the new houses could shelter :(
